17th August 2018

Christine and the Queens has offered up another preview of her forthcoming second album - this time, in the form of ‘5 Dollars’.

The track, which follows on from ‘Girlfriend’ and ‘Doesn’t matter’, is the third cut to be taken from ‘Chris’, the follow-up to her 2014 debut ‘Chaleur Humaine’.

Speaking of ‘5 Dollars’ in a press release, she has said: “The song is so tender, so disheveled. It’s dealing with some kind of love - the kind you can buy. It’s a literal interpretation. A note for a shag - how surprisingly soothing this can be! The power ratio runs clear, like water in your hands; it becomes a pure gesture of love, of ultimate consent.”

Her latest offering also comes complete with a new video, which she describes as “American Gigolo with a twist” - watch it below.

‘Chris’, her forthcoming new full-length, is due for release on 21st September via Because Music.
