Rosalia Teams Up with Billie Eilish for Haunting New Bilingual Track “Lo Vas a Olvidar”

Rosalia’s highly anticipated collaboration with Billie Eilish is an unforgettable feat…

The 27-year-old Spanish singer-songwriter released “Lo Vas a Olvidar” on Friday, featuring Eilish singing in Spanish.

With dreamlike, almost hazy melodies, the slow-tempo, bilingual song brings to the forefront Eilish and Rosalia’s vocal chemistry and enchanting harmonies.

“Dime si me echas de meno’ aún,” Rosalia kicks off. “Dime si no me perdonas aún,” continues Eilish.

The two artists go back and forth on the melancholic lyrics before Eilish closes off with a thought-provoking verse in English: “If I wasn’t important, then why would you waste all your poison?”

The official music video, filmed by award-winning director Nabil, shows the two artists’ powerful performances in a somber setting.

The video has already garnered more than 20 million views since its release.

“You guys have been waiting for this,” Eilish captioned her post on social media, which includes a sneak peek of the music video for the song.

“Lo Vas a Olvidar” will be part of HBO hit Euphorias “Part Two: Jules’” soundtrack. The episode’s teaser on social media features a preview of the track.

Fans have been waiting for this dream collaboration ever since the Rosalia tweeted back in March 2019, “can’t wait to finish our song” along with a photo of the pair.

Then in April, Rosalía said in an interview with Apple Music‘s Zane Lowe that she had been working on finishing the song in her “little” studio: “I have been trying to finish the Billie Eilish collab. I think it’s getting quite close.”

“La Vas a Olvidar” is set to drop at 12:00 pm ET along with a music video.
