"It's an upbeat dance track that has Gomez promising, "I'll be there when you lose yourself / To remind you of all you are." The song feels like a throwback to the 2010s, when dark, electronica pop dominated the airwaves. Gomez herself acknowledged the vintage of the new song on Instagram, when she captioned her post about the track, "This is just a little nostalgia droplet and I hope you love it.""
"In the show, the song scores Joanne's sister Morgan's (Justine Lupe) engagement party, through which Joanne and Noah are struggling after getting into a fight. As they decide to fake their way through the party as a happy couple, Joanne grabs Noah's hand, and the sweet tones of Gomez blare through the speakers. Will this be the next "Running Up That Hill," another song used in a Netflix show to catapult it to the top ten?"
Nobody Wants This season two includes 16 new soundtrack songs from artists such as Kacey Musgraves, Role Model, and Selena Gomez. Selena Gomez's "Sunset Blvd" opens the premiere while her new track "In the Dark" begins the final episode, effectively bookending the season. "In the Dark" is an upbeat dance track that evokes 2010s dark electronic pop and includes the lyric, "I'll be there when you lose yourself / To remind you of all you are." Gomez described the song as "a little nostalgia droplet." The track underscores Joanne and Noah faking happiness at an engagement party and could see renewed chart success.
