As ever, LOREDANA brings melodic sophistication and a song that rewards repeat listens while ODD CHAP lends exceptional studio skills from the production chair. They are joined by special guest CIRO PUSATERI (also ex- Swingrowers) on SAXOPHONE and together create magic. A beautiful banger that is both immediate on the dance floor but deeply rewarding for armchair and headphone listeners with an enigmatic lyric (below) and unique atmosphere.

Add to this the video, made in Sicily, that combines a beautiful modern aesthetic with a typically committed method performance from LOREDANA and you have something we are sure will be enjoyed by fans, new and old...

LYRICS:

I know, I make you think I lose
No need to prove how good I choose
But I never told (my biggest flaw)
How much you hurt me
You didn't catch I felt so lonely
One hundred points to your ego!
Now you're missing so my shining glow
It's too late, though!

If you try to pull me down, you don't wanna love me
I know you tried to get me down, yes!
I couldn't keep on slowly dying at play, cause I love me
You'll gotta deal to yourself, yes!

I'll finally go to toss the dice for
My really own game
You'll score an own goal
I've finally found
My strongest own voice
Our game is over!

Hard feelings made a masterpiece
Wiped out the beauty inside the beast
I can't see on my list a kiss to give
Who’ll break the spell if not me?
I made this out of my reach
A million points to my halo!
I’ll let go of any war and any foe
To knock on next door

If you try to pull me down, you don't wanna love me
I know you tried to get me down, yes
I couldn't keep on slowly dying at play, cause I love me
You'll gotta deal to yourself, yes!

I'll finally go to toss the dice for
My really own game
You'll score an own goal
I've finally found
My strongest own voice
Our game is over!

If you try to pull me down, you don't wanna love me
I couldn't keep on slowly dying at play, cause I love me

It seems like a parody
of the sweetest movie ever
If three clues are a proof
I think I’ve got so many
I don't know why
I don't know why me

And if I think about it
I could say why not me, though!

Three lies per week (It was a warning!)
Flouting, screaming (It was a warning!)
“I do it better! “ (It was a warning!)
“Now or never!” (It was a warning!)
“You mean nothing!” (It was a warning!)
My sad feeling (It was a warning!)
Unbelieving (It was a warning!)
Unforgiving (It was a warning!)

If you try to pull me down, you don't wanna love me
I know you tried to get me down, yes
I couldn't keep on slowly dying at play, cause I love me
You'll gotta deal to yourself, yes!

I'll finally go to toss the dice for
My really own game
You'll score an own goal
I've finally found
My strongest own voice
Our game is over! (x2)
