The nostalgic cover is fitting, as Halsey interjects Britney Spears' 2000 hit “Lucky,” an ode to the lonelier side of fame. “She's so lucky, she's a star/ But she cries, cries, cries in her lonely heart, thinking/ If there's nothing missing in my life/ Then why do these tears come at night?” Halsey sings the chorus in the teaser clip, adding her own twist to the track.
Halsey teased the song earlier this month with an Instagram clip of the song's recognizable chorus. “When I was 5 I always felt like Britney was singing directly to me,” they captioned the video of the pink-haired and wearing a T-shirt that says 'Lucky' on the front. “24 years later, those words were different. I love you forever.”
In June, Halsey confirmed that their fifth studio album was finished and on the way, after fans noticed that she had revealed a cryptic new Website titled “ForMyLastTrick.com.” The page boasts several illustrated badges, some of which lead to what appear to be clues about the new album.
