"ABCDEFU" Single by Gayle from the EP A Study of the Human Experience Volume One Released August 13, 2021 (2021-08-13) Recorded 2020–2021 Genre Pop rock[1] pop-punk[2] Length 2:48 Label Atlantic Arthouse Songwriters Taylor Rutherfurd Sara Davis David Pittenger Producer Pete Nappi Gayle singles chronology "Oscar Nominated" (2021) "ABCDEFU" (2021) "Ur Just Horny" (2022) Music video "ABCDEFU" on YouTube

"**ABCDEFU**" (also known by its radio-edited title "**ABC (Nicer)**"; stylized in [all lowercase](/source/All_lowercase)) is the major-label debut single by American singer [Gayle](/source/Gayle_(singer)),[3][4] released on August 13, 2021, through [Atlantic](/source/Atlantic_Records) and [Arthouse Records](/source/Arthouse_Entertainment). It was co-written by Gayle with Sara Davis and David Pittenger, and produced by [Pete Nappi](/source/Pete_Nappi).[5] The song is the lead single from Gayle's debut EP *A Study of the Human Experience Volume One*.[6]

"ABCDEFU" reached number one on the [*Billboard* Global 200](/source/Billboard_Global_200) and, in the United States, peaked at number three on the [*Billboard* Hot 100](/source/Billboard_Hot_100). Outside the US, "ABCDEFU" topped the charts in 16 countries.[7]

In 2022, the song was nominated for [Song of the Year](/source/Grammy_Award_for_Song_of_the_Year) for the [65th Annual Grammy Awards](/source/65th_Annual_Grammy_Awards).[8]

## Background and promotion

The song marks the first single release since the Nashville-based singer signed with [Atlantic Records](/source/Atlantic_Records)/[Arthouse Records](/source/Arthouse_Entertainment) in 2021.[9] On her [TikTok](/source/TikTok) account, Gayle uploaded a video where she stated "I'm out of [song] ideas" and asked followers to comment song ideas. She said, "Comment anything and I'll try my best to turn it into a song." Nancy Berman, a marketing manager at Atlantic Records, commented, asking for a song that incorporates the alphabet.[10] Within a few days, Gayle uploaded another video of her strumming the chorus of the song.

According to Gayle, the song "came from a place of trying so hard to be the nice, respectful ex-girlfriend, to the point where it was negatively affecting me".[11] In an interview with *Tongue Tied Mag*, Gayle explained the inspiration behind the song: "After the breakup, I was trying really, really hard to be a nice person. Like overcompensating for it. Like the week after we broke up, I called him and was like, 'hey bud!' and 'what's up my friend?!'."[12] On March 31, 2021, Gayle stated on Instagram that she had [dislocated](/source/Joint_dislocation) her [middle finger](/source/The_finger), and the X-ray scan from the hospital was used for the single's cover art.[13]

The song achieved mainstream success within a few months after release, surpassing over 500 million global streams as of March 2022.[14] Gayle has since released different versions of the song, including the demo, a "chill version", and an "angrier version".[15] The original song reached 1 billion streams on July 9, 2023.[16]

## Music video

The accompanying [music video](/source/Music_video) was released alongside the single. The video was shot via a [camcorder](/source/Camcorder) at a [low resolution](/source/Low_resolution) to evoke early 2000s [home videos](/source/Home_video). In the music video, the singer and her friends visit and look around her ex's home.[11][17]

## Composition

According to the digital sheet music published at musicnotes.com by Warner Music Publishing, "ABCDEFU" is written in the [key](/source/Key_(music)) of [E major](/source/E_major) with a [tempo](/source/Tempo) of 122 beats per minute, with Gayle's vocals ranging from G♯3 to C♯5.[18] The song's title and lyrical content are a [play on words](/source/Play_on_words) incorporating the first six letters of the [alphabet](/source/Alphabet) with the addition of the twenty-first, to form an [initialism](/source/Initialism) for the profane phrase "[**F**uck](/source/Fuck) yo**U**". In the "angrier" version, Gayle sings in the hook "A-B-C-D-E fuck you" to represent its meaning.

Sonically, the song is characterized by "minimalistic sonics" and "jagged guitar work", while it "reaches its climax with a massive sing-a-long chorus".[9]

## Critical reception

The song has been a viral hit on platforms such as [TikTok](/source/TikTok) and [Instagram](/source/Instagram). Emily Zemler of *[Rolling Stone](/source/Rolling_Stone)* praised the passion of Gayle's live renditions of the piece.[19] April Bredael of *Tongue Tied Magazine* thought the song "adds to a growing list of accomplishments" of the singer with tracks that are "authentic, honest, and unapologetic".[12]
