"Sweet but Psycho" is the debut single by American singer Ava Max, released on August 17, 2018, through Atlantic Records. It was later included on her debut studio album Heaven & Hell (2020). The song was written by Max, Madison Love, Tix, Cook Classics, and the producer Cirkut. "Sweet but Psycho" is a pop, dance-pop, electropop, and synth-pop song with lyrics about the perception of a young woman. The song's title was inspired by frequent interactions between Max and her parents. It received mixed to positive reviews from music critics, who praised its upbeat sound and catchy chorus, but criticized its formulaic production.

Upon release, "Sweet but Psycho" appeared on various Spotify playlists before peaking at number one in 22 countries, including Sweden, Finland, Norway, and the United Kingdom. The song was Max's first top 10 single in the United States, peaking at number 10 on the Billboard Hot 100. It was the highest-selling year-end song of 2019 in Slovenia and has attained multiplatinum certifications in 13 countries, as well as diamond in France, Brazil, Germany, and Poland.

The music video for "Sweet but Psycho" was directed by Bengali American filmmaker Shomi Patwary and depicts Max's character assaulting a man portrayed by model Prasad Romijn. It was released on August 27, 2018. Max connected with Romijn through Instagram, where he was invited to film the music video through the producer. Patwary used saturated colors for the video so that it would be perceived as artificial; he did not want the visual to appear realistic because it would be too violent. Lens flare was constantly used; the video was filmed using a vintage anamorphic lens that was made by Lomo, and it was rotoscoped and filtered to appear sharp. An ending for the music video in which Max wakes up from a dream was filmed, though the sequence was scrapped because Patwary disliked the cut and wanted it to finish with an open-ended conclusion. The video was compared to films Fatal Attraction (1987) and The Shining (1980), as well as music videos by Rihanna and Bebe Rexha. As of November 2024, the video has 962 million views on YouTube.

thank you

 

thanks, but in my end the audio is not sync and some frames is freeze for 1-2 sec ( i think the frames freezing is what causes the audio to go out of sync) .

 

Thanks

 

I can't replicate it here, but I've re-muxed the video anyway.
Can you check if this version gives the same error?

 

Nvm, i've already downloaded the master prores version and upscaling it to 4K.
I think the problem is not with the muxing but rather due to a rendering error during the upscaling process.

 

thanks
