Lily Moore has released her new track ‘Beautiful Lie’, the emotional new track is the follow-up to her last single ‘Hard Days Love’.
The songstress explains, “I wrote this song originally after a friend of mine got cheated on. They said how at least when they were being lied to they were happy, and it got me thinking about all the beautiful lies we tell ourselves and get told when we grow up that don’t end up coming true.
It felt like a song I really needed to write for myself and my friends and people my age who have constantly been messed about. Growing up post Brexit when we weren’t old enough to vote and to say no, post Covid and realising that maybe none of us will ever afford a house – no matter how hard we work, despite what we were told.
I wanted the video to look glamorous and relaxing until it zooms out – like when you post an Instagram photo in the sea and everyone thinks your somewhere expensive and far away but actually you’re in fucking Dover. The video starts off with me relaxing and having a little sip on my blue lagoon – before gradually revealing I’m sat in a shithole pond in Woking.!
Produced by The Nocturns the emotional song opens with Lily’s rich and commanding vocals, and builds to a powerful chorus.
The pop powerhouse has also revealed the music video today. It sees Lily sipping on a colourful cocktail whilst lounging on a giant pink inflatable flamingo, which is floating on murky waters.
Teaming up once again with director Claryn Chong, the visuals were captured in just one shot!
