Archiviata l’esperienza come membro delle Fifth Harmony, Camila Cabello pubblica il suo primo singolo da solista Crying in the Club (su etichetta Epic Records) venerdì 19 maggio. Il brano è estratto dall’album di prossima pubblicazione The Hurting The Healing The Loving, annovera nei credits anche Cashmere Cat, Benny Blanco, Sia e la stessa Camila, e (sorpresa!) contiene un sample di Genie in a Bottle di Christina Aguilera.

Camila Cabello spiega Crying in the Club

Ai microfoni di Beats1 la giovane artista di origini cubane ha descritto così il suo nuovo singolo, che parla della capacità di rialzarsi dopo una caduta:

Questa canzone fa parte del processo di guarigione. Il testo è speranzoso, ma il beat è molto intenso. Non voglio mai fare semplicemente una canzone allegra, non è nella mia natura. Il beat ha questo mood molto intenso, catartico. Era quel che il processo di scrittura mi diceva […]

Camila Cabello e il video di Crying in the Club

In attesa del video ufficiale, in arrivo in giornata, Camila Cabello ha condiviso sul proprio profilo Twitter alcune anteprime e ha lasciato un messaggio ai fan:

Questo video è davvero speciale per me. Contiene I Have Questions e Crying in the Club, le prime due canzoni del mio album The Hurting The Healing The Loving. Lavorare con il regista Emil Nava è stata un’esperienza incredibile. Ha capito del tutto la mia visione iniziale […] Spero lo amiate quanto me!

Camila Cabello, testo di Crying in the Club

You think, that you’ll die without him
You know, that’s a lie that you tell yourself
You fear, that you lay alone forever now
It ain’t true, ain’t true, ain’t true, no

So put your arms around me tonight
Let the music lift you up
Like you’ve never been so high
Open up your heart to me
Let the music lift you up
Like you’ve never been this free
‘Til you feel the sunrise
Let the music warm your body
Like the heat of a thousand fires
The heat of a thousand fires

Ain’t no crying in the club (Hey, hey)
Let the beat carry away your tears as they fall baby
Ain’t no crying in the club (Hey, hey)
With a little faith, your tears turn to ecstasy
Ain’t no crying in the club
I won’t, I won’t, I-
Ain’t no crying in the club
I won’t, I won’t, I-
Ain’t no crying in the club

You may think, that you’ll die without her
But you know, that’s a lie that you told yourself
You fear, that you’ll never meet another so pure
It ain’t true, ain’t true, ain’t true, no

So put your arms around me tonight
Let the music lift you up
Like you’ve never been so high
Open up your heart to me
Let the music lift you up
Like you’ve never been this free
‘Til you feel the sunrise
Let the music warm your body
Like the heat of a thousand fires
The heat of a thousand fires

Ain’t no crying in the club (Hey, hey)
Let the beat carry away your tears as they fall baby
Ain’t no crying in the club (Hey, hey)
With a little faith, your tears turn to ecstasy
Ain’t no crying in the club
I won’t, I won’t, I-
Ain’t no crying in the club
I won’t, I won’t, I-
Ain’t no crying in the club

You think, that you’ll die without him
You know, that’s a lie that you tell yourself
You fear, that you lay alone forever now
It ain’t true, ain’t true, ain’t true, no
I said ain’t no (Ain’t no)
Ain’t no crying
Ain’t no crying in the club, no crying
I said ain’t no (Ain’t no)
Ain’t no crying Ain’t no crying in the club, no crying

Ain’t no crying in the club (Hey, hey)
Let the beat carry away your tears as they fall baby
Ain’t no crying in the club (Hey, hey)
With a little faith, your tears turn to ecstasy
Ain’t no crying in the club
I won’t, I won’t, I-
Ain’t no crying in the club
I won’t, I won’t, I-
Ain’t no crying in the club
(Ain’t no crying, no crying, no crying, no)
I won’t, I won’t, I-
Ain’t no crying in the club
(Ain’t no crying, no crying, no crying, no)
I won’t, I won’t, I-
Ain’t no crying in the club
