Troye Sivan Joins 'Love, Simon' Soundtrack With New Song
The 'My My My!' singer is releasing a new song for the highly-anticipated movie...
Get ready for another Troye Sivan track!
The burgeoning superstar returned to the music scene last week with his brilliant new single 'My My My!', the first from his all-important sophomore album, and has another one on the way.
Troye is set to release a brand new song on the soundtrack of the highly-anticipated LGBT coming-of-age film Love, Simon, titled 'Strawberries & Cigarettes'.
Don't make me wait another day
'Cause passion is passion
You know it just as well as me
Now, let's stop running from love
Running from love
Let's stop, my baby (my baby)
Let's stop running from us
Running from us
Let's stop, my baby
Oh my, my, my!
I die every night with you
Oh my, my, my!
Living for your every move
Spark up, buzz cut
I got my tongue between your teeth
Go slow, no, no, go fast
You like it just as much as me
Now, let's stop running from love
Running from love
Let's stop, my baby (my baby)
Let's stop running from us
Running from us
Let's stop, my baby
Oh my, my, my!
I die every night with you
Oh my, my, my!
Living for your every move
Oh my, my, my!
I die every night with you
Oh my, my, my!
Living for your every move (every move)
Oh my, my, my!
My, my, my!
Should be the last night ever
Should be the last night we're apart
Got my name on this treasure
On this treasure
Oh my, my, my!
(My, my, my!)
I die every night with you
(I die, I die, I die, I die, yeah, yeah)
Oh my, my, my!
Living for your every move
(Living for, living for, yeah)
Oh my, my, my!
I die every night with you
(Oh my, my, my! Oh my, my, my!)
Oh my, my, my!
Living for your every move
(Living for your every move)
Oh my, my, my!
The intriguing title may not promote the most balanced diet but it certainly has us excited for what story it will tell, whether it be the teenage naivety of Blue Neighbourhood or besotted romance that is expected to dominate Troye's new album.
'Strawberries & Cigarettes' appears on a star-studded tracklist that also features new music by Bleachers, Amy Shark, Jack Antonoff and MØ, and a duet by Khalid and Normani Kordei.
Jack Antonoff has executive produced the entire collection - and appears on five songs - meaning there's a good chance he may have worked on 'Strawberries & Cigarettes' with Troye.
Between Lorde and Taylor Swift, Antonoff co-helmed two of 2017's biggest albums so the thought of him working on Troye's second album is very exciting indeed.
The Love, Simon soundtrack's lead single 'Alfie's Song (Not So Typical Love Song)' by Bleachers is out now, although we might need to wait until March 16th to hear new Troye.
Don't worry, though: Troye is debuting another new song on SNL this weekend along with the first live performance of 'My My My!'. #blessed, yes?

And lately, everyone feels fake
Somewhere I lost a piece of me
Smoking cigarettes on balconies
But I can't do this alone
Sometimes I just need a light
If I call you on the phone
Need you on the other side
So when your tears roll down your pillow like a river
I'll be there for you, I'll be there for you
When you're screaming, but they only hear you whisper
I'll be loud for you
But you gotta be there for me too
(Gotta be there for me too)
(Gotta be there for me too)
(Gotta be there for me too)
But you gotta be there for me too
Last year took a toll on me
But I made it with you next to me
Around the world and back again
I hope you're waiting at the end
But I can't do this alone
Sometimes I just need a light
If I call you on the phone
Need you on the other side
So when your tears roll down your pillow like a river
I'll be there for you, I'll be there for you
When you're screaming, but they only hear you whisper
I'll be loud for you, I'll be loud for you
I got you, I promise
Let me be honest
Love is a road that goes both ways
When your tears roll down your pillow like a river
I'll be there for you
But you gotta be there for me too
(Gotta be there for me too)
(Gotta be there for me too)
(Gotta be there for me too)
But you gotta be there for me too
Boy, I'm holding on to something
Won't let go of you for nothing
I'm running, running just to keep my hands on you
There was a time that I was so blue
What I got to do to show you?
I'm running, running just to keep my hands on you
Running, running just to keep my hands on you
Running, running just to keep my hands on you
So I'm running, running just to keep my hands on you
But you gotta be there for me too
(Gotta be there for me too)
(Gotta be there for me too)
(Gotta be there for me too)
But you gotta be there for me too
