After many listeners speculated that Charli XCX’s song off her new album Brat, “Girl, So Confusing” was about Lorde, the two songstresses collaborated on the brand new remix of the song. The remix was released shortly after the release of Brat and It’s the Same but There’s Three More Songs So It’s Not, the expanded version of the original album Brat. Perfectly said by Pitchfork, “The surprise release addresses – and seemingly confirms – speculation that Charli XCX wrote the song about Lorde…”

In the original version of “Girl, So Confusing” Charli XCX sings:

“People say we’re alike
They say we’ve got the same hair
We talk about making music
But I don’t know if it’s honest
Can’t tell if you wanna see me”

On the remix, Lorde seemingly responds to this in her verse singing the following lyrics: 

“You’d always say, “Let’s go out”
But then I’d cancel last minute
I was so lost in my head
And scared to be in the pictures
…
I never thought for a second
My voice was in your head”
