Remember how, last summer, we brought you a sneaky First Listen of Kamille's break-up bop Weight Loss? Well, a lot's happened since then.
Not only has Kamille scored a Number 1 single (as co-writer of David Guetta and Bebe Rexha's I'm Good (Blue)) and been nominated for a GRAMMY for that very same track, but she's also welcomed a baby son. Congrats, gorge!
But pregnancy certainly didn't keep Kamille away from her true passion; music. As well as hitting the studio with the likes of FLO, Kylie Minogue and Little Mix's Perrie Edwards and Leigh-Anne Pinnock, this week Kamille releases her brand-new track Muscle Memory.
The latest taste of her upcoming solo album, Muscle Memory was entirely self-written and produced by Kamille and features none other than Chic legend Nile Rodgers. Casual.
And, ahead of its release this Friday May 12, Kamille's only gone and given us an exclusive First Listen.
From the off, Muscle Memory asserts itself as an '80s-tinged track that's more a pastiche than a parody. While its instrumental's rooted in nostalgic, classic Motown gloss, it's contemporary and 2023 chart-ready.
'Middle of the dancefloor on a Saturday night, I don't need no liquor, don't need no flashing lights,' Kamille sings atop the funkiest of guitar licks. 'Tears in my eyes 'cause I'm 'cause I'm missing you.'
While previous single Weight Loss was an empowered tale of letting go, Muscle Memory's a story of longing for a love lost.
'I can't find my rhythm, can't shake off my regret, spinning round and round like every word that you said the day that you left...'
Kamille's vocals here are sublime. Smooth, soulful and understated.
'And if you come back to me, it's gon' last forever like it's supposed to be, I'll be dancing all alone
Midnights—might have hinted at the reasons behind her split from Joe Alwyn, Us Weekly reports. Swift and Alwyn broke up last month after six years together, and Swift has seemingly already moved on with fellow singer Matty Healy.
New Jersey concerts this weekend, the track has her fans absolutely convinced that she's singing about former flame Joe Alwyn, 32. Confessional as ever, the 12-time Grammy winner, 33 – who is currently being romanced by Matt Healey – chronicles the end of her relationship, lamenting about whether or not she should finally pull the plug and hinting at what brought the relationship to an end. Taylor brought on the waterworks with her bridge, singing: 'I wouldn't marry me either/ A pathological people pleaser/ Who only wanted you to see her.

Chris Willman Senior Music Writer and Chief Music Critic Sad songs say so much, as the man said. And in the case of a brand new Taylor Swift song, “You’re Losing Me,” some of her fans believe the lyrics say plenty about her relationship status over the last year or so. If her material is nothing if not almost always immediately quotable, “You’re Losing Me” has some lulus, starting with: “I wouldn’t marry me either / A pathological people pleaser / Who only wanted you to see her.” The overall tone, though, is less sad than weary, bordering on fatalistic: “Do I throw out everything we built or keep it? / I’m getting tired even for a phoenix / Always rising from the ashes / Mending all her gashes / You might just have dealt the final blow.”

Chris Willman Senior Music Writer and Chief Music Critic “The Voice” has not been much concerned with current Broadway voices until now. That’ll change in a big way with this coming Monday’s episode, which will feature a show-stopping number from “Shucked” — marking the first time a song from a currently running Broadway show has been featured on the long-running singing competition series. The song is “Independently Owned,” a major nightly showcase for Tony nominee Alex Newell. It’s been cited as the rare example of an original Broadway musical having its first and possibly biggest standing-ovation number come in the middle of the first act… and it’s a testament to “Shucked” as a whole that the production doesn’t feel like it’s going downhill from that early barn-burner.
