Rita Ora is back with a new single, You Only Love Me.
The emotional dance-pop track, which was co-written by Ora and produced by Lewis Thompson, features brief voice clips from her partner, award-winning filmmaker Taika Waititi. It's the first preview of the British-Kosovan singer's new album, the follow-up to 2018's 'Phoenix'. She said:
“With ‘You Only Love Me’ and my upcoming album, I wanted to capture the vulnerability I’ve experienced as I opened myself up to love and entered a new phase of life. Learning to let go of the past to make way for new experiences is a deeply personal process, and one I felt compelled to document through my music - the journey was not always easy, but I’ve come out of it stronger and filled with more love than I ever thought possible.”
The Charlie Sarsfield-directed video for You Only Love me will premiere at 1pm GMT today (January 27), and features cameos from Kristen Stewart, Lindsay Lohan, Jodie Turner-Smith, Chelsea Handler, Addison Rae, Alexander Stewart and Sharon Stone.
The song marks the first release for Ora since signing a deal with BMG, a deal which gives her ownership of all her future master recordings, and in turn the artistic control she craved previously.
