Righteous, radical, Who here votes?! Vote for change Down there on the sands His boombox playin oooh Green lights flashin from the bluetooth flicker Ooooh I mistook the blue bluetooth flash for green as we bathe in the coruscating brightness Of the solar power sun I guess that's why they call it bluetooth ooog And sharks have big teeth in the deep blue Which drinks in the energy of our starrrr Of the seaaaaa Solar power!!!!

Oh, I nesrly forgot about the lines where she talks about Dyson spheres: Ooh, don't you knooow That with a Dyson sphere, or more likely swarm which would be far less intensive and far easier to make, And not collapse or block out the stars, We could harness all the power of the sun Ooh And be a solar power species Using flower power Photosynthesis Take us to the stars!!! Ooh and that's why we sunbathe, to drink In the solar power flower power Of our hippy sun!
June 10, 20214 yr there are snippets out there and sounds amazing thank God it doesn't sound like beach boys/beatles at all :D
June 10, 20214 yr :w00t: Decided to ignore whatever snippets may be out there! Finally a new lead single after 4 years omg.
June 10, 20214 yr there are snippets out there and sounds amazing thank God it doesn't sound like beach boys/beatles at all :D I told you those were the lyrics!!! Actual people who know actual people in London who know actual London showbiz sources are never wrong.
June 10, 20214 yr I've split the thread into two for the single and album - given I expect there will be a lot of discussion!
June 10, 20214 yr there are snippets out there and sounds amazing thank God it doesn't sound like beach boys/beatles at all :D Is it upbeat or mellow?
June 10, 20214 yr Is it upbeat or mellow? If what I've heard is actually from the song, I'd say its pretty upbeat! Not as anthemic as Green Light, but not something like Billie's recent singles either.
June 10, 20214 yr ^yes good description, so it's been brought forward and it's out today instead of at the end of the month?
June 10, 20214 yr Oh ffs look like they uploaded it on all platforms early and have now taken it down and I just missed it 😭😭
June 10, 20214 yr Me too - I just tried and it had been taken down :( :( :( I am fuming, it literally seems to have gone down the exact second I went on my phone and found out it had dropped 😭😭
