"All Eyes on Me" is a song recorded by South Korean singer and Blackpink member Jisoo. It is the second track on her debut single album, Me (2023), which was released on March 31, 2023, through YG and Interscope. It is an upbeat dance-pop and EDM song with lyrics about a self-confident woman demanding her lover's attention. The track was written by Teddy, Vince and R. Tee, who handled the production alongside 24.

"All Eyes on Me" peaked at number 78 on the Billboard Global 200 and number 102 on the Circle Digital Chart. It also peaked at number four on US World Digital Song Sales, and was a top-ten hit in Hungary, Malaysia, Taiwan, and Vietnam. The track received generally favorable reviews for its lyrics and production showing a different side of Jisoo, with critics finding it a strong complement to the album's title track "Flower".

Background

On March 5, teasers were uploaded to Blackpink’s social media accounts, confirming that Jisoo's solo project would be released on March 31, 2023.[1] On March 8, the album's title was announced to be Me in a teaser poster featuring a close-up of Jisoo in floral accessories against a green background.[2] "All Eyes on Me" was announced as the second track of Me on March 27 in a poster containing the full tracklist and credits for the album.[3] It was released worldwide on March 31 through YG and Interscope alongside the title track "Flower".[4]

Lyrics and production

"All Eyes on Me" was written by Teddy and Vince and composed by Teddy alongside VVN, R. Tee, and 24, the latter two of which also handled the production.[5] It is an upbeat dance-pop and EDM song that incorporates elements of synth-pop in the outro.[6][7] In a Q&A with South Korean media outlet Osen, Jisoo explained that "The affection for 'All Eyes On Me' is so special that it was prepared as a candidate for the title track. Feeling cheerful yet deadly? I think a lot of people will like it as much as I do."[8] The lyrics represent an evolution from the heartbreak anthem of "Flower", instead depicting a self-confident woman who knows her worth and what she deserves, with lines such as “One is not enough, look into my eyes/ I don't want half, just look at me only/ That's a given, it's not so greedy.”[6] The singer is depicted as empowered by love, but not at the expense of the dominance she has.[9]

Critical reception

Writing for The Harvard Crimson, Samantha H. Chung for described it as "a strong track that complements 'Flower' well." She praised the self-confident lyrics and explained that "the song shows a different side of Jisoo while highlighting her distinctive voice and style."[10] Rhian Daly for NME wrote that "although not as poetic" as "Flower", "'All Eyes On Me's words still pack an alluring quality at times"; she additionally felt that the song was lacking musically in comparison to "Flower".[9]

Commercial performance

"All Eyes on Me" debuted at number 78 on the Billboard Global 200 and at number 42 on the Billboard Global Excl. U.S. chart.
