Rita Ora Talks EMA Nerves and Announces New Single Release Date On Facebook Live
The 'Your Song' singer will perform the song live at the 2017 MTV EMAs...
As she prepares to host the 2017 MTV EMAs, we caught up with Rita Ora to find out about her epic performance plans and she gave us a huge exclusive about her new single!
The 'Lonely Together' singer joined Becca Dudley on the London Eye for a Facebook Live catch-up all about the EMAs and she revealed that her brand new single - reportedly titled 'Anywhere' - is dropping later this month before she hits the stage on November.
After filming its music video in New York last week, Rita told the TRL hosts she will be performing a new song instead of 'Your Song' at the awards show, and it sounds like it's going to be massive.
I caught the edge of the knife, and it hurts just a little
And I know, and I know, and I know, and I know
That I can't be your friend
It's my head or my heart, and I'm caught in the middle
My hands are tied, but not tied enough
You're the high that I can't give up
Oh, Lord, here we go
I might hate myself tomorrow
But I'm on my way tonight
At the bottom of a bottle
You're the poison in the wine
And I know
I can't change you, and I
I won't change
I might hate myself tomorrow
But I'm on my way tonight
Let's be lonely together
A little less lonely together
Eyes wide shut, and it feels like the first time
Before the rush to my blood was too much and we flatlined
And I know, and I know, and I know, and I know just how this ends
Now I'm all messed up, and it feels like the first time
I might hate myself tomorrow
But I'm on my way tonight
At the bottom of a bottle
You're the poison in the wine
And I know
I can't change you, and I
I won't change
I might hate myself tomorrow
But I'm on my way tonight
Let's be lonely together
A little less lonely together
Let's be lonely together
A little less lonely together
My hands are tied, but not tied enough
You're the high that I can't give up
Oh, Lord, here we go
I might hate myself tomorrow
But I'm on my way tonight
At the bottom of a bottle
You're the poison in the wine
And I know
I can't change you, and I
I won't change
I might hate myself tomorrow
But I'm on my way tonight
Let's be lonely together
A little less lonely together
Let's be lonely together
(Let's be lonely, lonely now, let's be lonely, lonely)
A little less lonely together
A little less lonely now
(I can't change you, and I, I won't change)
A little less lonely now
(I can't change you, and I, I won't change)
A little less lonely now
The song and its video will both be released on October 20, and the star couldn't be more excited about it, telling Becca "I’ve never been more proud of anything."
Considering how many brilliant songs Rita has released in her career we cannot wait to hear the new single if she thinks it's her best yet!
“This single really represents the urge to break free from anything, which I think is very relevant to what we’ve been through this year as a city and a country.”
While she wouldn't give anything specific away about the performance, she seems determined to make it a moment to remember and is taking control of everything from costume to the set design. Yes, queen!
Rita also revealed that she is currently putting the finishing touches to her second album (OMG!) and said that the fan title of 'RO2' "is pretty close" to the official name (AH!).
While we're sure her pal and collaborator Ed Sheeran will give her some EMA advice, the star received a very special video message from last year's host Bebe Rexha who gave her some very handy advice and it was such a lovely moment of Albanian girl power.

But I can taste you on the tip of my tongue
Alarm without no warning
You're by my side and we've got smoke in our lungs
Last night we were way up, kissing in the back of the cab
And then you say "love, baby, let's go back to my flat"
And when we wake up, never had a feeling like that
I got a reason so man, put that record on again
I don't want to hear sad songs anymore
I only want to hear love songs
I found my heart up in this place tonight
Don't want to sing mad songs anymore
Only want to sing your song
'Cause your song's got me feeling like I'm
I'm in love, I'm in love, I'm in love
Yeah, you know your song's got me feeling like that
No fear but I think I'm falling
I'm not proud
But I'm usually the type of girl that would hit and run
No risk so I think I'm all in
When I kiss your lips, through my heartbeat thump
And now we're way up, dancing on the roof of the house
And then we make love, right there on your best friend's couch
And then you say "love, this is what is all about"
So keep on kissing my mouth and put that record on again
I don't want to hear sad songs anymore
I only want to hear love songs
I found my heart up in this place tonight
Don't want to sing mad songs anymore
Only want to sing your song
'Cause your song's got me feeling like I'm
I'm in love, I'm in love, I'm in love
I'm in love, I'm in love, I'm in love
I'm in love, I'm in love, I'm in love
Yeah, you know your song's got me feeling like I'm
I don't want to hear sad songs anymore
I only want to hear love songs
I found my heart up in this place tonight
Don't want to sing mad songs anymore
Only want to sing your song
'Cause your song's got me feeling like I'm
I don't want to hear sad songs anymore
I only want to hear love songs
I found my heart up in this place tonight
Don't want to sing mad songs anymore
Only want to sing your song
'Cause your song's got me feeling like I'm
I'm in love, I'm in love, I'm in love
I'm in love, I'm in love, I'm in love
I'm in love, I'm in love, I'm in love
Yeah, you know your song's got me feeling like that
