Norrie’s New Single: “You’re Only Here to Borrow My Car”

Norrie, the music project by Chris Gale, just released their first single of 2025, “You’re Only Here to Borrow My Car.” If you’re not familiar with Norrie, Chris is a songwriter and producer based in Los Angeles, who also has a background in acting, comedy, and poetry. His new single mixes dreamy, atmospheric vocals with an upbeat, feel-good rhythmic identity that is as hypnotic as it is inviting for listeners from the moment they hit play.

The track starts with a smooth, pulsing synth before the entrance of Norrie’s vocals. It’s the perfect blend of laid back vibes and pulsating feel. The lyrics carry a substantive message, especially the line: “All my dreams are pointing the same way. Into a brand new world without my same mistakes.” It’s about moving on from something, even when it’s tough.

“You’re Only Here to Borrow My Car” is about trying to get over a relationship, even when you still want to hold on. You know it’s time to let go, but you can’t help wishing they’d care just a little more so you could go back to the way things were. It’s a relatable feeling, and the music encapsulates it perfectly. The new release is right on par with the intentional approach he takes with his craft, and is just the start for Norrie in 2025, with more music on the horizon.
