I carry you on
With me, I promised you
I would
And I do
I float around
And show up announced
In the places that you knew
I draw you out
From the edge of my mouth
It feels good to say your name
It’s all I have now
What a wonderful sound
It makes
Would u guys want handwritten lyrics for this album? It might take me a while but Id get started this weekend if there was some folks who were intrigued
@NoahKahan releasing the song Orbiter while I'm deeply obsessed with the Artemis II mission, Project Hail Mary, and trakcing constellations on my phone is so personal to me.
"I'm an astronaut, you're the Moon, I stare at you, I sing to you, I circle you" 😭😭 ..a masterpiece!!!
@NASA will the 24/7 mission coverage of the Artemis II mission be available to watch back now that the livestream ended? I loved it so much and would love to be able to watch it back! Thanks for the livstream by the way. It brought a lot of joy to lots of people 🌏🚀🌙
I need Alley Rose on the permanent Wishbone tour setlist so bad 😭😭. Just spent an hour shredding my vocal cords singing it in my car. Imagine getting to hear it live?!? A need @conangray *fingers crossed*
My favorite part about writing is that first spark of an idea. It can happen at any time, for any reason. The idea for the Opalite music video crash landed into my imagination when I was doing promo for The Life of a Showgirl. I was a guest on one of my favorite shows, @TheGNShow. For those of you who aren’t familiar, it’s a UK late night show where Graham Norton (the insanely charismatic and lovable host) invites a random group of actors, entertainers, musicians, etc to be on his show and we all sit there and chat like it’s a dinner party. They even serve wine. Anyway. I remember thinking I got ridiculously lucky with the group I was paired with. Cillian Murphy, Domhnall Gleeson, Greta Lee, Jodie Turner-Smith, and @LewisCapaldi. All people whose work I’ve admired from afar. When we were all talking during the broadcast, Domhnall made a light hearted joke about wanting to be in one of my music videos. He’s Irish! He was joking! Except that in that moment during the interview, I was instantly struck with an *idea*. And so a week later he received an email script I’d written for the Opalite video, where he was playing the starring role. I had this thought that it would be wild if all of our fellow guests on the Graham Norton show that night, including Graham himself, could be a part of it too. Like a school group project but for adults and it isn’t mandatory. To my delight, everyone from the show made the effort to time travel back to the 90’s with us and help with this video. You might even recognize some friendly faces from The Eras Tour. I got to work with one of my favorite people in the world, Rodrigo Prieto, again! I had more fun than I ever imagined - Made new friends, metaphors, and fashion choices. It was an absolute thrill to create this story and these characters. Shot on film. The Opalite video is out now on Spotify & Apple Music.

Tonight all these lives converge here
The mosaics of laughter and cocktails of tears
Where fraternal souls sing identical things
And it’s beautiful
It’s rapturous.
It is frightening.

I can’t tell you how proud I am to share this with you, an album that just feels so right. A forever thank you goes out to my mentors and friends Max and Shellback for helping me paint this self portrait.
If you thought the big show was wild, perhaps you should come and take a look behind the curtain...
The Life of a Showgirl is out now.
