Baby Queen announces eagerly-awaited debut album Quarter Life Crisis
London-based anti-pop singer Baby Queen has announced her debut album and released an accompanying single, ‘All The Things’.
The new track is the third single from Quarter Life Crisis. The song is classic Baby Queen: pulsating synths, an infectious hook and lyrics that perfectly capture the all-consuming nature of romantic affection. “‘All The Things’ draws inspiration from the relationship between two of the main characters in Heartstopper called Tao and Elle,” the 25-year old (real name Bella Lantham) explains. “But it also encapsulates the emotions I was feeling very strongly at the time of writing it, so it’s a very personal song to me. “It’s about being so enamoured with a person that the things that once brought you happiness don’t hit or affect you in quite the same way because all the things you used to want to do, you now want to do with that person by your side.” The single also features on the soundtrack of Heartstopper season two.
