"Roundabout" is a song that turns a messy situation into a sharp, funny confession. The track, by Nashville-based singer-songwriter Sara Kays, was released on 21 February 2025 as the second single from her EP Reasons to Call You. It was written by Kays and producer Steven Martinez.

Kays said of the song: "One of my favorite songs ever is out now !!!! Turns out if he hangs out with his ex girlfriend while you're out of town and doesn't tell you then you get a free pass to write a song that makes him sound real bad." That honesty is the heart of the song.

The lyrics are full of the kind of everyday detail that makes the best indie songs work. The narrator is wondering about the other person, and the song is built around that uncertainty. It is a song about the fear of being replaced, and it is delivered with a vocal performance that is both vulnerable and compelling.

The EP Reasons to Call You was released on 2 May 2025, and Kays embarked on a tour in support of it. What stays with me is how the song turns jealousy into something almost playful. It is not just a sad song; it is a song with a wink.
