Halsey is currently on a countdown to the release of her upcoming fifth studio album, The Great Impersonator.
And on Wednesday the ever-changing fashion chameleon took to her Instagram page to share it’s ‘Day 3 of counting down to The Great Impersonator, October 25th and today comes with an announcement,’ she shared.
‘THE GREAT IMPERSONATOR #3: KATE BUSH,’ she wrote in caps, along with news about, ‘TRACK 10: I NEVER LOVED YOU.’
‘This song cuts deep,’ the Edison, New Jersey native revealed. ‘And it’s coming out tomorrow October 10th at 9am PST / 12pm EST.’
Alongside the message, Halsey (born Ashley Nicolette Frangipane), 30, also shared a photo from the album collection showing herself with her wild teased hair while surrounded by blue fabric, which is a near perfect match to an old photo of Bush from back in the day.
Halsey, 30, announced Kate Bush as her inspiration for track 10: I Never Loved You, which is the fourth single off her upcoming fifth studio album The Great Impersonator
In anticipation of their fifth studio album, Halsey revealed she is paying tribute to the musical icons who inspired various tracks on her new record.
‘From now till the album drops on October 25, I will be impersonating a different icon every day and teasing a snippet of the song they inspired,’ she announced
For the first tribute she shared two days earlier, the pop star dressed like country music legend Dolly Parton, while announcing she inspired ‘TRACK9: HOMETOWN.’
In the photo, she imitated the Joline singer-songwriter from her cover of the album Rainbow (1987), where she’s decked out in a plunging black and silver dress and her long blonde curls falling all around her.
Halsey’s look for the photo she shared is a near spot-on replica of Parton.
For day two of the countdown to The Great Impersonator release, which was on Tuesday, October 8, showed mimicking PJ Harvey.
In the photo, Halsey is wearing the American flag bikini top and blue eyeshadow from Harvey’s Blue Girl album cover from 1995.
In the next slide is the actual photo of PJ, and it’s also pretty spot on.
Kate Bush is Halsey’s pick as third inspiration to songs from her new album; Bush holds the distinction of being the first female artist to achieve a UK number one with a fully self-written song with her single Wuthering Heights in 1978
