Olivia Rodrigo’s debut album Sour wasn’t the only angsty-teen emo-pop music to drop yesterday. No. In yet another match thrown into the fire of Cruella’s origin story, Rodrigo’s release overshadowed Cruella de Vil’s brand-new, Hot Topic–ready Disney villain song, as written and performed by Florence + the Machine. Called “Call Me Cruella,†the track begins with a nod to the famous song from 101 Dalmatians before Florence Welch delves into such Joker-isms as “I tried to be sweet / I tried to be kind / But I feel much better now that I’m / Out of my miiiiiiiiiiiind,†and “The fabric of your little world is toooooorn.†Gleaning from the lyric video released on Disney’s Vevo yesterday, the plot of the upcoming Cruella appears to be: Emma Stone does pranks at London Fashion Week. Which sounds pretty fun, as far as Disney’s live-action remakes go.
