It’s been a long wait for new music from Christine and The Queens.
Having set the world alight with her remarkable debut ‘Chaleur humaine’ back in 2014, the French singer has now confirmed the release of her anticipated follow-up, titled ‘Chris’.
Set for release in September, two songs have so far been revealed, and today she brings the project’s third with ‘5 dollars’.
“The song is so tender, so disheveled. It’s dealing with some kind of love — the kind you can buy. It’s a literal interpretation. A note for a shag — how surprisingly soothing this can be!” the singer tells Vogue Magazine. “The power ratio runs clear, like water in your hands; it becomes a pure gesture of love, of ultimate consent. The closet is segmented into two racks — suits and bondage. From there, I wouldn’t advise to conclude anything too drastic, since you’re glaring yourself, in an obscene fashion — voyeur. The hustler is also someone who allows you to project onto him or her, before disappearing to leave you alone with your phantasmes.”
