“Taste” is the first track off of Sabrina Carpenter’s sixth studio album, Short n' Sweet, and was released as the highly anticipated third single with a music video featuring female actress Jenna Ortega on August 23, 2024, following hits “Espresso” & “Please Please Please”.
Disco-infused & irresistibly danceable to, “Taste” serves as the album’s opener, layering risqué innuendos with revenge and betrayal, stating that even if he’s cheating, she’ll allow it as he’s always got the taste of her on his lips.
The music video, much like the track, cheekily infers many dark satirical movies, such as ’Ginger Snaps‘, ’The Addams Family’, & primarily ’Death Becomes Her’, with Ortega playing Madeline, who’s played by Meryl Streep, & Carpenter playing Helen, who’s played by Goldie Hawn.
“So, ‘Taste’ is one of my favorite songs off the album and it says a lot about me and a lot about other people. I think it’s sort of poking fun of myself a little bit for my mistakes and also poking fun at the, kind of like, facepalm that is life and relationship and the, sort of, situations that it puts you in, um, and it’s just making lighthearted fun at the whole concept of, you know, people that you’ve been with moving on to other people, and, you know, I think it’s a very human thing but it’s certainly fun.“ — via Kiss 108
