Charli XCX is the queen of placing out bangers with glorious automotive references in her lyrics and even songs which are primarily about vehicles. I imply, simply take a look at her songs “Vroom Vroom,” “White Mercedes,” “Porsche,” “Backseat” and the observe “Pace Drive” that was featured in the Barbie film. It’s particularly becoming that Charli has so many automotive lyrics, as her music is completely excellent for blasting in your automotive.
Her new album Brat, which was launched on Friday (and had a deluxe model drop final evening), is not any totally different. There are traces about vehicles or driving in a number of of the songs, and we’ve rounded all of them up for you.
In “The whole lot is romantic” Charli sings about how, properly, all the pieces is romantic whereas on an Italian trip with a brand new lover. This bit is repeated a number of instances all through the tune, with the road “fall in love time and again” making up your entire final third of the tune, too:
Fall in love time and again
Winding roads, doing guide drive
There’s an opportunity the “guide drive” bit is speaking a couple of scooter or bike, although, as Charli additionally says “sandals on the stirrups of the scooters.”
Charli makes use of the “apple doesn’t fall from the tree” metaphor in “Apple” to sing about her relationship along with her dad and mom, which makes her need to get away:
I assume the apple don’t fall removed from the tree
‘Trigger I’ve been you so lengthy
Now I solely see me
I wanna throw the apple into the sky
Feels such as you by no means perceive me
So I simply wanna drive to the airport
The airport, the airport, the airport
She repeats the road “I’m gonna drive, gonna drive all evening” a pair instances earlier than the third verse is available in:
I feel the apple’s rotten proper to the core
From all of the issues handed down
From all of the apples coming earlier than
I cut up the apple down symmetrical traces
And what I discover is kinda scary
Makes me simply wanna drive
(Drive, drive, drive, dr-dr-dr-drive, drive, drive)
(I’m gonna drive, gonna drive all evening)
(I’m gonna drive, gonna drive all evening)
(Drive, drive, drive, dr-dr-dr-drive, drive, drive)
Okay, this isn’t explicitly about vehicles, as earlier within the tune she sings about bumpin’ her music within the membership and in her home, however these home windows in query may be automotive home windows, particularly as “365″ goes extremely arduous when blasting it in your automotive:
Now I wanna hear my observe, are you bumpin’ that?
‘Til the home windows crack, I’ll be (Bumpin’ that)
“Spring Breakers” is about Charli being an outcast at occasions just like the Grammy’s, which have been held on the Staples Heart on a number of February 10ths. Sadly, I don’t know precisely what kind of huge pink truck she’s speaking about:
Vroom, vroom, vroom, vroom, in a giant pink truck
February tenth, and I’m gonna pull up
Hey, Staples Heart, what the fuck is up?
Yеah, I’m parked outdoors watching all the women strut
DUIs are dangerous, clearly, however I really like these lyrics that come later within the verse:
Yeah, I knew I’d find yourself with my palms behind my again
In a police automotive, blue and crimson sirens
All flash, flash, flash, flash, lights and cameras in all places
Now I’m on the information with the DUI stare
Who cares?
Simply put me on the platform, flip the microphone on
There’s nobody I wanna thank on the market, yeah
“360″ doesn’t have any automotive lyrics, however there are vehicles within the video, together with (what I feel is) Charli’s personal 992 convertible.
