Dua Lipa just shared her disco pop single, “Break My Heart,” the latest preview from Future Nostalgia. The track samples the melody from INXS‘ 1987 hit, “Need You Tonight,” and features lyrics that fit perfectly for the social distancing era.
On the chorus, Lipa expresses regret for pursuing a love interest: “Break My Heart” is co-produced by The Monsters & Strangerz with watt, who is currently recovering from coronavirus.
Lipa co-wrote the song with watt, members of The Monsters & Strangerz, and hitmaking songwriter Ali Tamposi. Since the beat is built around the catchy guitar loop from “Need You Tonight,” INXS' lead singer Michael Hutchence and keyboardist Andrew Farriss also have co-writing credits.
