Charli XCX is taking over the world of pop music with the release of her latest record, Brat. She recently shared the meaning of the song "Talk Talk," which she said was inspired by an encounter with her fiancé, George Daniel, in 2020.
The singer took to TikTok to share a video of herself discussing the meaning behind the latest track. She recalled an incident at the NME Awards in 2020 when she and The 1975 drummer were not in a relationship yet.
She clarified that although they weren't romantically involved with one another at the time, they were "very into each other."
"We were at the NME Awards, we were both sat on different tables, and we were like texting each other, but we weren't hanging out," she said.
Charli remembered that they would look at one another, but the other would look away, and vice versa.
"You know, when you just feel like someone is watching you, you can feel a hole burning in the back of your head or something like that," she added.
She gave more details about the encounter in the lyrics of her song, as she sang, "I followed you to the bathroom / But then I felt crazy."
The pop superstar noted that she followed Daniel to the bathroom during the awards show in hopes of bumping into him, but when she was halfway there, she realized that it was "insane," so she turned around and sat down again.
Charli XCX and George Daniel met in 2021 when they worked on the song "Spinning," he also collaborated with his future fiancé on songs on her album Crash.
Later, many fans noticed that the pair had been going out more often and were even spotted holding hands in New York City.
In May 2022, the couple made their romance on Instagram official by starting to post each other's photos on their respective accounts.
The pair got engaged in November 2023, as Charli announced on social media: "Charli xcx and George Daniel f****** for life!!!"
In other updates about Charli, the musician just released her new album, Brat, and later surprised her fans with three extra songs.
She's set to perform at arena concerts across the United Kingdom later this year and embark on a co-headlining tour with Troye Sivan, billed as Sweat Tour.
