Alexander 23 is a singer-songwriter skilled at fusing youthful confusion, emotional exploration, and modern pop elements. His music usually uses simple guitar or piano as the base, paired with a warm, slightly hoarse voice, giving the songs a sense of closeness and easy resonance. The singer is skilled at capturing the uncertain and waiting mindset in love, his songs sound like a friend whispering emotional fragments to you, rather than deliberately showing off or being artificial.
《IDK You Yet》 was released in 2021 and is one of his important works that gradually accumulated popularity. This song has a slow arrangement, simple melody but easy to linger in the mind, with a feeling of expectation and loneliness intertwined. The song uses guitar, electronic elements, and clean percussion to create a clear and soft sound field, very suitable for nights alone, deep thinking, or recalling first love moments. The song is particularly popular among young groups, especially listeners who like indie pop / bedroom pop. It often appears in: late-night thinking or recollection playlists; breakup and first love emotion organizing playlists; Chill pop, emotional resonance themed digital platform playlists. The charm of this song lies in its low-key and real emotional expression, not as gorgeous as mainstream love songs, but with a delicate touch depicting that person you haven't met yet or the emotions you're still waiting for.
The theme of 《IDK You Yet》 is the fantasy and anticipation for a future lover. The lyrics describe a person's longing and thoughts for that 'right person' they haven't met yet: although they haven't met now, they have already started imagining the possible stories between them. The arrangement deliberately retains space and gentleness, like talking to oneself at night, with a slight mix of loneliness and sweetness. This emotion makes one feel both the bitterness of waiting and the possible beauty of the future.

Translated Lyrics:
How can you miss someone you've never met?
How can one miss someone they've never met before?
'Cause I need you now, but I don't know you yet
Because I need you now, but I haven't met you yet
But can you find me soon because I'm in my head?
But can you find me soon because I'm trapped in my thoughts~
Yeah, I need you now, but I don't know you yet
Yes, I need you now, but I haven't met you yet
'Cause lately it's been hard
Because recently it's really been hard
They're sellin' me for parts
They're selling me for parts
And I don't wanna be modern art
I don't want to be modern art
But I only got half a heart to give to you
But I only have half a heart to give to you
How can you miss someone you've never seen?
How can you miss someone you've never seen?
Oh, tell me, are your eyes brown, blue, or green?
Oh, tell me, are your eyes brown, blue, or green?
And do you like it with sugar and cream?
And do you like it with sugar and cream?
Or do you take it straight, oh, just like me?
Or do you take it straight, oh, just like me?
Yeah, lately it's been hard
Yes, recently it's really been hard
They're sellin' me for parts
They're selling me for parts
And I don't wanna be modern art
I don't want to be modern art
But I only got half a heart to give to you
But I only have half a heart to give to you
And I hope it's enough
And I hope it's enough
How can you miss someone you've never met?
How can one miss someone they've never met before?
'Cause I need you now, but I don't know you yet
Because I need you now, but we still haven't met
But can you find me soon because I'm in my head?
But can you find me soon because I'm trapped in my own mind
Yeah, I need you now, but I don't know you yet
Yes, I need you now, but I don't know you yet
I need you now, but I don't know you yet
I need you now, but I haven't met you yet
I need you now, but I don't know you yet
I need you now, but I don't know you yet
I need you now, but I don't know you yet
I need you now, but we haven't met yet
I need you now, but I don't know you yet
I need you now, but we haven't met yet
