Charli xcx Releases ‘I Keep On Thinking Bout You Every Single Day and Night’ as ‘Rock Music’ Vinyl B-Side

Charli xcx can’t get her mind off of someone, and even humors the thought “maybe I could be gay,” on “I Keep On Thinking Bout You Every Single Day and Night,” a song added as the B-side of “Rock Music” on vinyl.

“I’m probably not,” she sings while cheekily pondering her sexuality on the new track, but adds, “I’ve always wondered if you were actually gay/ Or if that’s somеthing you just say for your career.”

Maybe Charli doesn’t want her unnamed muse, but wants to be her? “I Keep On Thinking Bout You Every Single Day and Night,” set to minimalist production and a fleeting 1:32 runtime — and a black-and-white video shot in Kyoto, Japan, on one handheld camera acting as voyeur to Charli sensually ascending a stairwell and rolling around a dance studio floor — opens with a lyric referencing experimental art of the mid-century French New Wave movement: “Maybe we could become each other/ Like somethin’ out of a Jacques Rivette movie or somethin’.”

Hazy as the root (and object) of her obsession is, Charli — who in her current real life is married to George Daniel of The 1975 — gets direct to the point, on repeat, by the chorus: “I keep thinkin’ ’bout you, every single day/ I keep thinkin’ ’bout you, еvery single night.”

The track was announced on Instagram on Saturday (May 8), the day after Charli debuted new single “Rock Music.” The artist posted it on @b.sides, her side account where she puts behind-the-scenes bits that don’t make it to main.

“i keep on thinking bout you every single day and night’ the b side to rock music. i went to kyoto for six weeks to shoot a film. while we were there, i made this video with aidan. only available on vinyl & here on b.sides. so rip the audio if you want it xx,” Charli wrote to fans via @b.sides on Saturday.

At press time, the just-listed “Rock Music” 7″ is sold out on Charli’s official webstore. The product page does offer the names of record stores in the U.S., U.K. and France receiving limited quantities of the vinyl release.

As it’s not available on any music streaming services, right now Charli’s “I Keep On Thinking Bout You Every Single Day and Night” can only officially be heard by watching her video on Instragram below.
