She had big hair; I had big hair. She wore black lipstick; I once wore black lipstick. You create these parallels and think, ‘Well, that could have been me.’ But it couldn’t have because we’re completely different people.”Charli has clarified the pair remain good friends, with Lorde even praising her recent album ‘Brat‘ saying: “There is NO ONE like this bitch”.In the verse, fans can hear Lorde singing: “Well honestly I was speechless / when I woke up to your voice note / You told me how you’ve been feeling / Let’s work it out on the remix”.
