Charli XCX has shared a new b-side, 'I Keep On Thinking Bout You Every Single Day And Night'. Check it out below.
On Friday (May 8), Charli shared her new single 'Rock Music', which sees her stray from the club atmosphere of 2024's 'Brat' and embrace crunchy guitars.
Now, she's unveiled the track's stripped-back b-side, 'I Keep on Thinking Bout You Every Single Day and Night', alongside its lo-fi, black and white video, which sees her slink up and down hallways before ending up in a dance studio.
Last month, Charli's team confirmed that she was finishing work on her new album, and shortly afterwards, in an interview with British Vogue, the lyric "I think the dance floor is dead, so now we're making rock music" was previewed. It prompted speculation that the album would take a heavier direction, though Charli later clarified, "I never said I was making a rock album."
Elsewhere in the British Vogue piece, she also revealed that she was determined not to make 'Brat 2.0'. "If I'd made another album that felt more dance-leaning, it would have felt really hard, really sad," she confessed. "What's interesting for me is to bend the possibilities of what my perspective on that could be".
Her last studio album was 2024's 'Brat', the release which became a cultural phenomenon, giving rise to "'Brat' Summer" and confirming Charli XCX as a global superstar. Since then, she has released a soundtrack album for Emerald Fennell's Wuthering Heights.
As well as working on that soundtrack, the '360' singer also penned music for the A24 film Mother Mary, starring Anne Hathaway, starred in her own mockumentary The Moment, took on a role in the new romance Erupcja, and locked in a role in fantasy 100 Nights Of Hero.
She also played a comedic version of herself in the TV show Overcompensating, and was recently cast alongside Supergirl star Milly Alcock in a new horror film directed by Takashi Miike.
As for upcoming live dates, this August, she'll return to the stage to make her headline debut at Reading & Leeds, topping the festival bill alongside Fontaines D.C., Raye, Florence + The Machine, Dave and Chase & Status. Visit here for tickets and more information.
