Si intitola “Chained to the rhythm” il nuovo singolo di Katheryn Elizabeth Hudson, meglio conosciuta con lo pseudonimo di Katy Perry, popstar statunitensi tra le più seguite ed apprezzate al mondo che, nel corso della sua breve ma fortunata carriera, ha già venduto oltre 30 milioni di dischi. Ecco il video.
Il brano, in rotazione radiofonica dal 10 febbraio, si avvale di una speciale collaborazione con Skip Marley, giovanissimo nipote del noto cantautore giamaicano Bob Marley. Scritta e composta da entrambi gli artisti, con la partecipazione di Max Martin, Ali Payami e Sia Furler, la canzone segna il ritorno discografico di Katy Perry, assente dalla scena musicale dalla pubblicazione del suo ultimo album “Prism”, datata 2013.
Per accompagnare il lancio di “Chained to the rhythm”, è stato realizzato il videoclip ufficiale del pezzo, diretto dalla regista australo-giapponese Aya Tanimura.

Chained to the rhythm | Testo
Are we tone deaf?
Keep sweeping it under the mat
Thought we can do better than that
I hope we can
So comfortable, we live in a bubble, a bubble
So comfortable, we can’t see the trouble, the trouble
Aha, look so good (so good)
So put your rose-colored glasses on
And party on
Turn it up, it’s your favorite song
Dance, dance, dance to the distortion
Come on, turn it up, keep it on repeat
Stumbling around like a wasted zombie
Yeah, we think we’re free
Drink, this one is on me
We’re all chained to the rhythm
To the rhythm
To the rhythm
Turn it up, it’s your favorite song
Dance, dance, dance to the distortion
Come on, turn it up, keep it on repeat
Stumbling around like a wasted zombie
Yeah, we think we’re free
Drink, this one is on me
We’re all chained to the rhythm
To the rhythm
To the rhythm
It is my desire
Break down the walls to connect, inspire
Ay, up in your high place, liars
Time is ticking for the empire
The truth they feed is feeble
As so many times before
They greed over the people
They stumbling and fumbling
And we’re about to riot
They woke up, they woke up the lions
Turn it up, it’s your favorite song
Dance, dance, dance to the distortion
Come on, turn it up, keep it on repeat
Stumbling around like a wasted zombie
Yeah, we think we’re free
Drink, this one is on me
We’re all chained to the rhythm
To the rhythm
To the rhythm
Turn it up
Turn it up
It goes on, and on, and on
It goes on, and on, and on
It goes on, and on, and on
‘Cause we’re all chained to the rhythm
