Ke$ha has just released the acid-trip video for the hard-thumping, infectiously catchy track, "Die Young," the lead single off of her upcoming sophomore album "Warrior," which is set to hit stores and iTunes on December 4. The 25-year-old singer went on a spiritual journey, came back, and worked really hard to explored her rock roots. With her new album, She intends to show her vulnerable side, and the new clip features our hero as a cult leader, partaking in ceremonies with orgy implications and flashing scores of Illuminati icons. Basically, Ke$ha's back!
It's been two years since we heard new music from the whiskey enthusiast, and it's been well worth the wait. "Die Young" was complimented for the genre mashup. Instrumentally, it has a melody and rhythm reminiscent of Flo Rida's "Good Feeling." Lyrically, it was compared to "Teenage Dream" by Katy Perry. Regarding the song's meaning, Ke$ha said: "It's kind of an anthem. It's a celebration song, which I'm obviously known for writing those, but this one, the concept of it was to live each and every single day like it's your last and to always remain having a youthful spirit no matter how old I get."
"Die Young" spreads acoustic guitar strums, over an uptempo dance beat, while Ke$ha belts her half-rapped, half-sung vocals on the verses. Despite the track's fun loving message, there's also an urgency at play that suggests the pair may actually do as the title suggests. Ke$ha, a electro-pop maven, hadn't really done guitars before really in songs. On her last record it was a strict no-guitar rule. If you're going to die young, your life will probably be a lot happier if you spend it listening to "Die Young."
"It's about me being a cult leader at the end of the world," Ke$ha hightails it down to Mexico in a hearse with her disciples for a sexy dance party in her apocalyptic themed video. With tons of blatant Illuminati symbols and some sort of illegal orgy going on. She dances with wolves, dons a fur vest and gets it on in an abandoned church and starts a cult for glitter enthusiasts, and the whole thing builds to a frothy frenzy until the cops show up to shut things down, but the "Warrior" stands defiantly at the door ready to take on the gun-toting policemen. The clip takes the singer's button-pushing ability to dizzying new heights.
