Charli XCX “begrudgingly” releases ‘Music, Fashion, Film’ B-Sides on iTunes

Charli XCX has "begrudgingly" put three previously exclusive B-side tracks onto iTunes, having earlier insisted they would never appear on digital platforms. The songs were added on Sunday 26 July as part of a digital deluxe edition of her latest album, 'Music, Fashion, Film', after sustained fan demand persuaded her to change course despite feeling it went against the "ethos" of the tracks.

The three songs — 'I Keep On Thinking Bout You Every Single Day and Night', 'Playboy Bunny' and 'If You Take the Music Then What Has She Got?' — had previously only been shared physically on limited-edition 7" vinyl singles for 'Rock Music', 'SS26' and 'Camera', a box set, and via her Instagram side-account @b.sides. 'Music, Fashion, Film' itself arrived on Friday 24 July with an accompanying short film, marking Charli's first conventional studio album since 2024's 'Brat'. She headlines Lollapalooza in Chicago on 31 July, makes her Reading & Leeds headline debut in August, and starts a North American arena tour with Underscores in Philadelphia on 11 September.
