“Online Jesus” – the newest single from Australian talents Keli Holiday (aka Adam Hyde) and Alex Cameron. arrives like a refreshing jolt of modern realism wrapped in synth-pop and indie rock. This collaboration highlights both artists’ unique sounds while taking listeners on a rhythmic ride through the highs and lows of romance in the digital age.

The track’s catchy bassline and vibrant guitar lead lay a solid foundation for its layered production, showing off Keli Holiday’s signature “punk-pop” energy alongside Cameron’s indie sophistication. The mix feels nostalgic and cutting-edge, capturing the feel of Britpop crossed with synth-pop zest—a combination that Holiday himself labels as a “tangerine nightmare on ecstasy.” The results? A sound that’s part irresistible groove and part biting social commentary.

Lyrically, “Online Jesus” delves into the superficiality and self-importance that can often appear on dating apps. As Holiday explains, the song’s title and message poke fun at the “online Jesuses”—people who view themselves as digital saviors or perfect partners in a way that’s more self-serving than genuine. This playful cynicism is underscored by catchy, even sardonic, vocals that elevate the track from just another love song to a witty reflection on our tech-driven quest for connection.

Holiday and Cameron’s chemistry shines as they explore themes of disillusionment and fleeting connections, making “Online Jesus” a must-listen for fans of both indie and synth-pop scenes. It’s a track that not only entertains but also encourages reflection on how modern dating shapes our perceptions of romance.
