Halsey has said that Britney Spears gave her “blessing” for the singer to sample her 2000 hit ‘Lucky’, ahead of the release of her single of the same name.Halsey first teased the new track at the start of the month, with a message aimed directly at Spears. “When I was five, it always felt like Britney was singing directly to me.
24 years later, these words hit different. Love you forever,” she wrote, alongside a photo of her wearing a t-shirt featuring the word ‘Lucky’.“But I’m so lucky, I’m a star / But I cry, cry, cry in the lonely heart thinking / If there’s nothing missing in my life / Then why do these tears come at night?” she sings on the track, slightly repurposing the original lyrics into a first-person point of view.So far, we only have a clip of the song, which is due to be released in full on July 26.
