In two weeks - literally from today - Charli XCX releases the long-anticipated followup to her 2024 breakthrough album brat. This song, the second single from that album, is to my ears a throwback to her earlier days - when True Romance was a thing - when I was a fan of hers and posted about her all the time.
Oh, and the album is called Wuthering Heights, which not coincidentally shares the name of a movie released that weekend (since the album is the soundtrack). The movie is loosely based on the Emily Brontë novel - and Charli, who was inspired by the screenplay after being asked to write a song for the movie, wrote an entire soundtrack instead.
So why not wait two weeks to post this? Why post today?
Because, TODAY, Charli herself is in a movie called The Moment, a mockumentary about a musician about to embark on a headlining world tour. Charli XCX plays a character named (*checks notes*) Charli XCX. Yeah, it's a fictionalized version of herself.

So, yeah, here's the trailer for that. The movie looks amazing.
