"Sunset Blvd" is a song by American singer Selena Gomez and American record producer Benny Blanco, released as the second single from their collaborative studio album, I Said I Love You First. Gomez and Blanco wrote the track with Justin Tranter, Cashmere Cat, Michael Pollack, Amanda Ibanez, and Jeremy Malvin. Blanco also produced the song along with Chrome Sparks and Bart Schoudel. SMG Music LLC, Friends Keep Secrets and Interscope Records initially released the song for download and streaming on March 14, 2025. It was released to Italian radio on July 31, 2025.

Background and release

In February 2025, Gomez and Blanco announced their collaboration project, I Said I Love You First. They released the lead single, "Call Me When You Break Up", on February 20, and later hinted at another song dropping before the album's release. On March 4, they unveiled the official track list on social media. A week later, on March 11, they announced the release of their new song, "Sunset Blvd".

Composition

Described as a synth-pop, ambient pop and dream pop number, "Sunset Blvd" was inspired by Gomez and Blanco's first date on the eponymous street in Los Angeles. During the bridge, Gomez delivers a half-whispered spoken word breakdown.

Music video

On March 14, 2025, "Sunset Blvd" was released for download and streaming, accompanied by its official music video, directed by Petra Collins. Gomez drew inspiration from cult classics, channeling a full '80s vixen aesthetic in the video. Her hair and makeup paid homage to Francis Ford Coppola's 1982 film, One from the Heart, which he praised.
