Excerpt:

The singer took to Instagram on Monday (July 1) to tease what appears to be a new song that samples Britney Spears’ 2000 hit, “Lucky,” an ode to the lonelier side of fame. “She’s so lucky, she’s a star/But she cry, cry, cries in her lonely heart, thinking/If there’s nothing missing in my life/Then why do these tears come at night?” Halsey sings the chorus in the teaser clip, adding her own type of pop twist on the track.

  1. I prefer the original. “I’m so lucky I’m a star but I cry cry” sounds a bit narcissistic whereas the original was telling the story of someone else. I like that better
