The Charli XCX rollout continues. This month we got “Rock Music” and its b-side “I Keep Thinking About You Every Single Day And Night,” followed by “SS26,” whose b-side, “Playboy Bunny,” is here now.
Like “I Keep Thinking About You Every Single Day And Night,” “Playboy Bunny” is only available on her b-sides Instagram account and on limited edition 7″ vinyl. Charli rung in this new era by announcing a pivot to rock music, then backtracking by saying, “i never said i was making a rock album.” But “Playboy Bunny”? It’s rock music. More specifically, it’s a sassy shoegaze anthem. It’s got fuzzy, atmospheric guitars and lines like, “All my music sounds the same/ Well, that’s because I made it.” It’s too good to be a b-side, but maybe all this b-side fuss is just promo and she’ll eventually throw it on streaming. Who knows. Check it out below.
