Charli XCX’s Boiler Room set back in March featured an A. G. Cook edit of “Everything Is Romantic,” a new song from the suddenly imminent new album Brat. Saturday at Primavera Sound in Barcelona, Charli gave the standard version of the track its live debut. “This is a new song from my new album,” Charli announced from the stage. “The best album of the year: Brat.”
Brat is purportedly a love letter to the rave culture Charli grew up in, and “Everything Is Romantic” certainly fits into that milieu. After a quiet orchestral section that leaves listeners with bated breath, waiting for the drop, the song explodes into a bombastic electronic beat and vocals that verge on rapping. It seems like a song that will be a big deal at Charli shows for the foreseeable future. Watch footage of the big debut below.
