I made True Romance together with my roommate Tim From The House. We both had a need to write something different and dramatic. It took me three days to get the lyrics right but I recorded it in one take. The lyrics are based on the movie True Romance, destructive cinematic love at its best and worst. We shot this scene for it in one take in the desert earlier this year. Kenny Laubbacher has always captured the emotional journey of the song perfectly in this scene. 💣🔨
Yeah, I how it escalates and she pushes her voice to almost cracking. Not something you want to do live or do too often or for any kind of long duration. It's actually damaging and dangerous to a singer if they do it for too long or try too hard. But the way she gets to a rasp and hits her vocal limit, almost screaming it out, really matches the angst and escalation of the movie. It's a brutal flick and she gives it what it deserves, like nobody ever could. She really couldn't have done it any better than this, it's so passionate and raw. Goosebumps.
Tove Lo was the last gig I ever saw before the world shut down. She is one of my favourite artists of all time and I'm so excited about everything in this era. Got goosebumps listening/watching this. It's a SAD BOP SUMMER 💔
The first time I heard this song, it literally took my breath away and I knew almost every lyric the second it was over. Thank you honey for such a tearfulled moment of beauty.
THIS IS INCREDIBLE! GURL!! YOUR PIPES ARE ON FIRE THIS ALBUM!!! Sounds like someone has finally regained all of their vocal control since the surgery, and WOW it has done amazing things for your voice! The passion, the emotion, the pain, it's so beautiful in your voice!!!
my favorite artist of all time coming back after almost 2 years since an album project is the most adrenaline filled feeling ever. October 14th can't come fast enough
Tove Lo, Charli XCX, Rina, Bree Runway, Carly Rae Jepsen, Slayyyter, and many others creating these new, original sounds and styles is the best thing to happen to the industry in a long time imo. SO EXCITED FOR WHATS TO COME😍
This is my favorite scene from the album so far. So raw and real, you and kenny captured this song soooo well. Whenever you tour this album i WILL be there.
I'm in my 50's, and I've only just discovered you 3 years ago. My daughter has shared alot of great music with me....Just wanted to commend you on your varied styles and I enjoy your music daily. 💖💜💙
God help me this is probably the most beautiful song ive ever heard. I CAN NOT listen without crying. Thank you for your awareness and power to speak our hearts with yours. My appreciation knows no bounds ❤
Brilliant. Truly brilliant. I've enjoyed being your fan for 10 years, and I'll continue being a fan for many years more. Can't wait for your next album
I only came across this lady last year whilst watching Dancing Queens on Netflix, and have been captivated by her honest, human and reflective lyrics. This is by far my favourite record of hers. Absolutely stunning. Praying she plays this in Birmingham @ O2 in November.
Yeah, I love the rasp in this. It matches the escalation and angst of the film and sounds so passionate and raw. Couldn't have done it better than she did.
One of the most powerful songs this year, absolutely mesmerizing, love everything about it and I'm not even a Tove Lo fan. But her vocal performance grabbed me and never let go. Easily one of the best songs of 2022.
Absolutely in love with this one. It's so RAW. I fully understand why you couldn't wait for us to hear it. You poured your whole heart in this one. You never stop to amaze me. You are incredible, I love you so much 🦂💙
Great flick, one of my favourites and it's so unique, that someone made a song about it. It's a brutal flick that breaks all the rules and your voice escalates with the angst in the film. Perfection!

Watching and listening while eating breakfast, for triple the nourishment 💙 You’ve given me so much strength over the years, thank you for everything Tove
Agreed, Sunshine kitty was fun but definitely not her strongest piece of work. I'm glad to see her come back to her roots with the 80s elements like in her previous albums :)
It's about the movie. She is literally singing the movie lmao AND I'M HERE FOR IT❤❤❤❤. Watching Gary Oldman play a drug lord gangster was definitely new for me😂 it's a good movie, fucked up, but good
YEEEEEES! YEEEEEEEES! YEEEEES!!! Yaaaaay! it's the video that was projected when you sang it live a month ago, I love you so much! 😭😭😭😭😭😭💙 I had a dream where I saw you walking in that green outfit weeks before I saw you performing it 🥺 The day you sang it live I had a deja vu. It was like if I had already lived that moment 😭😭😭💙 I love you SO SO BAD! You are PURE MAGIC for my heart💙 my soul was healed too much that day when I finally saw you in front of me 🥺 You are so beautiful!!! And your voice is so magical. I loved listening to you speak and I loved every word in Spanish that you said 😭😭😭💙 I was finally where I belonged 🥺🥺🥺for once in my lifetime I felt beautiful with all my flaws and I loved myself so much for always feeling like a freak Now I know it's a blessing to be it 💙
Utterly fantastic! Your voice is just out of this world! Been a fan for years and you never cease to amaze me. Keep up the amazing work. Your music is a shining light in a dark world. Thank you for making my life a little more bearable.
For as long as I can remember (before I even got into astrology), I came to my own conclusion that after trying so hard in relationships and failing time and time again, the reality is that no one takes the time to really understand the complexity of Scorpio placements. It seems like people are just getting colder and colder too and those of us with the need for love are really going through some stuff. To all my sweet Scorpio suns, moons, Venus', and everything else, don't give up my sweethearts. Find love in yourself and those that have made it very clear that they want to love you. We're all growing and learning about ourselves so make mistakes but learn from them. We got this. :). And thank you Tove Lo for always writing songs that reach out to us people that can't always express the complexity of our emotions. Have a wonderful day everyone. ❤️
Your concert was one of the last shows I saw before the pandemic began. That night remains so special to me and further pushed my love and support towards you. THANK YOU FOR THE MUSIC YOU CREATE! Thank you for sharing your pain and making beautiful art from it. I’m so ready for this new era! #DirtFemme
I've been listening to this album, and this song in particular religiously since it came out - it's absolute art in every way. Plus the homage to one of the greatest movies ever let alone one of the greatest action/ romance cinematic gems of all time, is downright beautiful. This album & this song deserves accolades upon accolades

❤️❤️❤️
Clarence + Alabama
Thank u ❤️
One take royalty
I never thought I would hear a song from Tove Lo that is just her voice and a drowned-out bass synth, but I am obsessed with this.
She is really proving her vocal range!!! Completely baring her soul with original panache'
YES!!! IT'S SO BEAUTIFUL OMG!!! 😭😭😭
The all so great
She's proving her vocal limitations.
Yea!!!! If u listen to the Sia cover
Elastic heart
She’s come so far from then and that was phenomenal x

Same, I saw her 2019 and November 21th I'm going to her gig in Stockholm. I just can't wait💚
Same! I saw her February 2020 in Philadelphia! That was the last fun thing I did before the world shut down.
I just seen her at the Governors Ball few weeks ago..
Same! Saw her in February 2020 in North Carolina right before the world went into quarantine.
Me too! I went to the Toronto show and then boom covid shut down the world, and I look back to that concert a lot cause of how amazing it was.
This has to be one of the best songs of the year. So underrated
The first time I heard this song, it literally took my breath away and I knew almost every lyric the second it was over. Thank you honey for such a tearfulled moment of beauty.
Amen. Jesus Christ amen.

The rasp in her voice, the high notes 😭😭 AND MOM RECORDED THIS IN OME TAKE TOO 😭😭 Am I going to be alive until October???
thas wassup
MOM 🥰
Yeah, I love the rasp in this. It matches the escalation and angst of the film and sounds so passionate and raw. Couldn't have done it better than she did.
So good. And knowing the movie scenes that the lyrics are referencing makes it that much better
I can watch her walk all day
Wow. Simply wow. The vocal is amazing! And the idea of this video turned my soul.
Again you made a good job
😳🥺 que voz linda 😍 ❤️👏👏👏🥰
This song delivers so much on so many levels
She hated the real world so much that she started to walk around the upside down. What a queen!
One of the most powerful songs this year, absolutely mesmerizing, love everything about it and I'm not even a Tove Lo fan. But her vocal performance grabbed me and never let go. Easily one of the best songs of 2022.
The vocal performance is exquisite oh my god
Mesmerizing breath of fresh air...Thank you!
In love with this I actually have no words to explain the way I feel when I listen to this
every album she puts out she is able to make me cry my heart out.
Masterpiece ❤ Let's go back to our world. 🎉
I really feel these lyrics with goosebumps every time I listen to this .
Absolutely in love with this one. It's so RAW. I fully understand why you couldn't wait for us to hear it. You poured your whole heart in this one. You never stop to amaze me. You are incredible, I love you so much 🦂💙
❤❤❤❤😢
That emotional depth in your voice and with these lyrics?! My soul is still falling, expecting to hit the floor any day now.
I can't stop singing it and crying. So Raw and Emotional. I love it!!❤️
What a piece of art. I feel all the emotions the song passes.. It's so beautiful.. fantastic! ♥
Video reminded me of "Chet Faker - Gold", amazingly simple video for a powerful song, does perfectly to not take away from the lyrics.
This is my favorite song of the album. It's so refreshing to hear something DIFFERENT
Dirty Femme already is the album of the year, Tove I love u su muchhh
@2:46 "They all had it comin". ....Full body goosebumps! That vocal range is incredible.
Still shocks me that she did that all in one take… I’ve been obsessed with this song for so long and hearing it in concert (my first) was magical ✨
Her voice is tobacco caramel on a sugar waffle.
Such raspy raspberry rippling through the chords.
A purposeful song, lyrics of depth.
🎶⚡🤘😍✌️🔥💕⚡🎶
Powerful. Great artist.
I'm so OBSESSED WITH THISSS😭😭😭 the lyrics, instrumentals just tears me apart💖.
So much soul in the vocals, I really love it. Have been a fan of you for such a long time. I love you Tove ❤️🏳️🌈
My favourite Tove lo song ever. Wow. love you
First it was a true disaster, now it is a true romance ❤️🔥
🤯🤯‼️‼️‼️
That's so beautiful 💕
Just found you, and you are brilliant , have been blasting your music in the car and it makes me wanna just drive on !! Love love love 💕
Unconventional yet catchy. I like this more progressive vibe. Way more experimental and musically fresh IMO.
Great flick, one of my favourites and it's so unique, that someone made a song about it. It's a brutal flick that breaks all the rules and your voice escalates with the angst in the film. Perfection!
this song feels like breathing for the first time x brings so many emotions
TOVE LO - TRUE ROMANCE (lyrics)
************************************
[Verse 1]
I walk in a vision in red
Your favorite movie playing on my silhouette
You turn to me just for a minute
Do you know my real secrets?
[Verse 2]
Make my move
Spillin' all my popcorn over you
You're confused
What does a girl like me want with you? (With you, with you)
[Chorus]
I want your hands, your future plans
'Til the bitter end, we said
"Take a life for me," you know I'd do it instantly
In danger over true romance
We are meant to be, I'd die for love and loyalty
In danger over true romance
[Post-Chorus]
I don't like the real world
I don't like the real world
It's tough out in the real world
Let's go back to our world
[Bridge]
Bullets fly, you took him down
And now we're honeymooners dreamin' 'bout the tropical skies
[Verse 3]
In trouble again
When does it end?
Will it ever end?
Save me
[Chorus]
Running from the sin, more money that we could ever dream
In danger over true romance
Bodies left to bleed, they all had it comin'
In danger over true romance
Thought I watched you die, I'd kill a man with tears in my eyes
In danger over true romance
Saved you from that room
The powder and gold and the men were all doomed
Against our love, they never stood a chance
"Take a life for me," you know I'd do it instantly
In danger over true romance
We are meant to be, I'd die for love and loyalty
In danger over true romance
[Post-Chorus]
I don't like the real world
I don't like the real world
It's tough out in the real world
Let's go back to our world
*Against a love that never stood a chance
it's also in the description :) the line where you have a [?] says "The powder and gold and the men were all doomed"
*running from the scene, not sin :)
"In danger *of a true romance*" not "over true romance "
I AM NOT OKAY YOU GUYS THIS SONG MAKES ME CRY SO MUCH
Me tooooo
What an atmospheric and haunting TUNE ! Tove, our Disco Angel you sound incredible and have scored again x
Whew, the vocal intensity in the last 1/3 or so, yesss! The video is hypnotic too, and the end touched me.
Don't know why but I'm obsessed with this song. I keep listening it all night long
Best song of 2022. I am absolutely stunned, every time.
Watching and listening while eating breakfast, for triple the nourishment 💙 You’ve given me so much strength over the years, thank you for everything Tove
Tove Lo, how I admire and enjoy your fresher point of view ... your songwriting prowess ... your presence and power. Thank you.
She has the most unique and Interesting songwriting style I've listened to
OMG you are so inspiring and you added so much to the industry I love you so much I really do ❤️
Im crying this is soo beautiful
I keep replaying 3:15 😍 THAT NOTE, THE EMOTION the way your ponytail swung behind you!!! Perfection.
Yesss 😍
The pain in this song is 💎
her writing has improved a lot since sunshine kitty and i'm so happy for that. this is such a mature song
Agreed, Sunshine kitty was fun but definitely not her strongest piece of work. I'm glad to see her come back to her roots with the 80s elements like in her previous albums :)
This song is just so beautiful. It’s giving a futuristic love story
It's about the movie. She is literally singing the movie lmao AND I'M HERE FOR IT❤❤❤❤. Watching Gary Oldman play a drug lord gangster was definitely new for me😂 it's a good movie, fucked up, but good

Just pure passion, in love with the song ❤️🌷
