Tate McRae Releases New Song “Sports car”
Canadian singer-songwriter Tate McRae released the third single called “Sports car” from her upcoming third studio album “So Close To What” on January 24, 2025.
The new album is set to be released on February 21, 2025. It is her first body of work in two years since the 2023 album “Think Later” and comprises 15 songs.
She wrote the song with American singer-songwriter Julia Michaels, American pop rock band OneRepublic frontman Ryan Tedder, and Grant Boutin. Produced by Ryan Tedder and Grant Boutin.
The accompanying music video was directed by Bardia Zeinali.
Tate McRae told Vogue about the song, “This was such a fun song to write. I wrote it with Julia Michaels, Ryan Tedder, and Grant and we wanted to kind of capture the adrenaline of love, sex, and the excitement of it all. I felt like a sports car reminded me of that feeling of love, and like you are right in the middle of it. We referenced the Ying Yang twins with the whisper chorus and it ended up being really fun.”- She said of the video, “This was the most difficult video to move in because I wanted to honor the pieces and make sure that the outfits laid well and looked good. But in some shots I was wearing six to eight inch platform heels where I was like this is actually impossible to stand in. I’m such a sneakerhead so for me to walk around in heels is an issue. And for one of the scenes, I had to be in heels and a chair. Learning where to put my weight and where to put my pelvis to be able to dance with heels while also balancing and moving quickly is such a skill.”
