“Do Therapists?” – She Is Jules

If you’ve ever felt like the music you listen to doesn’t cover a wide enough range of topics, you’re in luck. “Do Therapists?” by She Is Jules delves into the oft-considered yet rarely spoken question: Does my therapist need therapy? She Is Jules spills a variety of lyrics probing the situational irony of feeling bad for your therapist just for having to listen to your problems. To some, this might seem like a gratuitous concern, but those who get it, get it. It’s catchy, relatable, well-performed, and ultimately, cathartic.

It starts with a plucky synth gently arpeggiating through a chord progression. She Is Jules hums along, giving us a hint of her smooth, warm tone. She begins the verse: “Do therapists see therapists / ‘Cause that’s a lot to hold? / Do baristas go to coffee shops / ‘Cause there’s is getting old?” The lyrical pattern unfolds pretty much immediately, putting the dichotomy of consuming/producing services on full display. The verses continue like this, with increasingly thought-provoking examples. 

The chorus bursts forward with a low piano chord and a wash of harmonies, which, by the later choruses, graduates to an electronic drum groove and some rumbling bass. The lyrics are a bit more self-reflective, detailing more personal struggles instead of the generalizations in the verse. It’s a good juxtaposition, as we get to see inside She Is Jules’s world on a more intimate level periodically. With that said, the songwriting is truly clever, and allows the listener, in just one song, to glean She Is Jules’s musical character.
