Halsey is back with more musical magic than your playlist can handle! The 30-year-old pop powerhouse just flung another sonic masterpiece into the universe with her latest track, βI Never Loved You,β released Thursday (October 10). Itβs basically the love child of synths and shoulder pads, because this one is dripping in pure β80s fabulousness. Think big hair, neon lights, and dramatic stares into the distanceβperfect for all your moody walks around the house.
The song, written by Halsey herself (because of course sheβs multi-talented), was produced by Michael Uzowuru (who hangs out with Frank Ocean, no big deal) and Tyler Johnson (who, you know, casually works with Miley Cyrusβso no pressure, right?). Together, this trio basically concocted a time machine and brought us back to a time when everything was groovy, and feelings were super complicated.
βI Never Loved Youβ follows in the footsteps of her Top 40 hit βEgoββbecause Halsey knows how to serve up a hit like itβs brunch and weβre all hungry. And letβs not forget that the full album, The Great Impersonator, will drop on October 25. Mark your calendars, set your alarms, and prepare your ears for a glorious sonic rollercoaster.
As part of the albumβs buildup, Halsey is doing something so extra, itβs brilliant: sheβs impersonating a different icon every single day. Why? Because she can. So far, weβve been graced with her takes on Dolly Parton, PJ Harvey, and Kate Bush. Whatβs next? Cher? Freddie Mercury? A surprise Britney Spears? Who knows! But itβs all going down on her Instagram, so donβt miss itβthis is a masterclass in channeling legends.
Oh, and it doesnβt stop there. Just when you thought Halsey had done enough, sheβs also going to perform on a special Halloween episode of Amazon Music Live. Because whatβs Halloween without Halsey? Exactly.
Now go ahead, hit that play button and listen to βI Never Loved You,β because your ears deserve some glamour too!
