Self Esteem unveils new single 'Girl Crush'

With only a couple of days left before she releases her highly-anticipated debut album, Self Esteem aka Slow Club’s Rebecca Lucy Taylor has now returned to share another cut from her forthcoming full-length.

The new single 'Girl Crush' follows on from the previously unveiled track 'The Best' in previewing her debut LP 'Compliments Please', which is set to arrive this Friday 1st March via Fiction Records.

Speaking about her new release, the frontwoman added, “‘Girl Crush’ is a reaction to the term itself. It should just be known as a crush. This isn’t a ground-breaking gender and sexuality statement; it’s just common sense. Women aren’t a fun new cool thing for straight women to try - and in an age of pop songs about ‘kissing girls’ and ‘trying it on for size’, I felt like saying ‘well you know, that’s not much fun for the person you’re experimenting on?’ It’s a difficult thing to talk about but it’s something I can make a banging pop song about.”
