ILIRA - PAY ME BACK!
Get ILIRA’s new single "PAY ME BACK": ILIRA.lnk.to/paymeback More info about ILIRA: www.iliramusic.com/ www.instagram.com/iliramusic www.facebook.com/iliraa PAY ME BACK is the new single from pop diva ILIRA. The 4-octave-singer flexes her impressive vocal gymnastics in this sass-packed bop, reminding everyone of her status as pop royalty. PAY ME BACK! is a mood for sure, displaying ILIRA’s bottled up anger towards her ex, urging him to pay her back for all the love, time and effort she wasted on him. It comes as no surprise that ILIRA’s language is a colorful blend of clever lines. The opening line — “Just like a slot machine, honey, you had your greedy little hands on me” — sets the tone for the whole song, proving that Kosovo-Albanian songstress ILIRA has a bone to pick with her ex. The unicorn-themed art work and music video are a tribute to ILIRA’s fans that she lovingly calls unicorns. With a gigantic monster chorus, and a bridge reminiscent of 90s pop, PAY ME BACK! is the kind of glittery yet ballsy, bossy music today’s pop needs.
