News of the new album follows last month\u2019s announcement that she\u2019d be taking a hiatus from the Miss Me? podcast to \u201cgo and do some new stuff for a little bit\u201d<\/a>, which many took as a sign she was turning her sights to new music and potentially working on the follow-up to 2018\u2019s \u2018No Shame<\/a>\u2018.<\/p>\n

Now, in a new interview with British Vogue<\/a>, Allen has confirmed that the yet-to-be-titled album was recorded in a mere \u201c16 days\u201d late last year, and appears to draw from the dissolution of her marriage to Stranger Things actor David Harbour after reports of alleged infidelity on his part<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Having heard the record, writer Olivia Marks described it as \u201cLily at the very peak of her powers,\u201d with \u201cgut-punch lyrics\u201d set to infectious pop. The snippets of lyrics shared in the interview certainly seem to allude to the \u201cemotional turmoil\u201d triggered by their split that she\u2019s discussed previously<\/a>.<\/p>\n

On \u2018Sleepwalking\u2019, for instance, she sings: \u201cYou let me think it was me in my head \/ And nothing to do with them girls in your bed\u201d. Similarly, in \u2018Dallas Major\u2019 she doubles down: \u201cYou know I used to be quite famous that was way back in the day \/ I probably should explain how my marriage has been open since my husband went astray\u201d.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere are things that are on the record that I experienced within my marriage, but that\u2019s not to say that it\u2019s all gospel,\u201d she told Vogue.\u00a0\u201cIt is inspired by what went on in the relationship: Confusion, sorrow, grief, helplessness.\u201d<\/p>\n

This comes as the start of the year saw her share that\u00a0she was \u201ctrying to manifest\u201d getting a new album \u201cout by the end of the year\u201d.<\/a> Last spring, she revealed that\u00a0she was working on new music in Nashville<\/a>, but found the process a bit \u201cintimidating\u201d.<\/p>\n

In January of last year, the \u2018Not Fair\u2019 singer\u00a0teased that she had written around 50 new songs for her upcoming album<\/a>, although none have been shared at the time of writing.<\/p>\n

Rumours of new music stem back to 2020, when Allen\u00a0said that she had finished working on a new album<\/a>\u00a0and was writing for three musicals; though that supposed album has never been released.<\/p>\n

Two years later, she said that she had\u00a0returned to the studio<\/a>\u00a0following her\u00a0special guest performance at Olivia Rodrigo\u2019s Glastonbury set<\/a>\u00a0in 2022. After the collaboration, Allen\u00a0credited the performance with Rodrigo for \u201csparking something\u201d in her<\/a>\u00a0that rekindled her yearning to write and record new music.<\/p>\n

More recently, the singer said that she has noticed\u00a0her music having a \u201cresurgence\u201d online, with more young people becoming fans<\/a>\u00a0in recent years.<\/p>\n

Outside of music, Allen has also made a name for herself in acting \u2013 both on stage and on screen. She made her theatre debut in the 2021 play\u00a02:22 A Ghost Story, followed by 2023\u2019s\u00a0The Pillowman. On-screen, she has appeared as Elizabeth Taylor in the 2019\u00a0film How To Build A Girl\u00a0and as Mel in the 2023 comedy series\u00a0Dreamland<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Lily Allen is set to make a return to music with a new record that marks her first…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":83152,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[28],"tags":[146,85,46,409,875],"class_list":["post-83151","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-music","tag-entertainment","tag-il","tag-israel","tag-music","tag-pop"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/83151","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=83151"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/83151\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/83152"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=83151"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=83151"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=83151"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
