Some songs hit because they’re loud. “That Was Insane” hits because it’s close. Soul de Vienne leans into emotional immediacy here, telling a story that feels like it unfolds in real time, messy, impulsive, and oddly tender. The track circles around an unexpected connection, the kind that sneaks up on you in the middle of a regular day and flips the mood without warning.
Led by Austrian composer and producer Roman Schleischitz, the project thrives on subtle tension rather than big gestures. The production blends contemporary soul-pop with jazz-leaning details, letting live-recorded textures breathe. Nothing feels rushed. The groove moves at its own pace, giving space for the story to sink in.

Vocalist Gwen is the anchor. Her delivery feels conversational, almost like she’s thinking out loud. There’s humor in the early moments, hesitation in the middle, and a quiet shift when things get real. She doesn’t oversell the emotion, she lets it land naturally, which makes the song feel more personal than performative.
Soft trumpet lines, a relaxed rhythm section, and warm harmonies keep the track grounded. It’s intimate without being small, cinematic without trying to flex. The song doesn’t chase shock value; it lingers on that fragile second where curiosity overrides logic.

“That Was Insane” isn’t about romance as a plan, it’s about impulse as truth. Soul de Vienne captures that blurry line between “this is nothing” and “this changed something,” and lets it sit there, unresolved. That honesty is what makes the track stick.
