“For my next trick”: Halsey unveils ‘The Great Impersonator’ album tracklist

26 September, 2024

Halsey has revealed the full tracklist for her upcoming fifth studio album, ‘The Great Impersonator’ – see the full list of songs below.

Last night (September 25), the singer-songwriter took to social media to share a new video, revealing the complete list of songs that will make up her forthcoming record. In the video, a deck of playing cards are manipulated by magic and illusions to reveal the titles of the album’s 18 songs.

The album includes the previously released songs ‘Ego’, ‘The End’, ‘Lonely Is The Muse’ and ‘Lucky’. It will also include three versions of ‘Letter To God’, dated 1974, 1983 and 1998 respectively. It is currently unknown if these are full songs or interludes.

The album is due for release on October 25 and is available for pre-order now.

Other songs making up the album include the opening track ‘Only Living Girl in LA’, ‘I Never Loved You’, ‘Arsonist’ and the title track – which also serves as the album closer – ‘The Great Impersonator’.

The tracklist for Halsey’s ‘The Great Impersonator’ is:

01. ‘Only Living Girl in LA’
02. ‘Ego’
03. ‘Dog Years’
04. ‘Letter to God (1974)’
05. ‘Panic Attack’
06. ‘The End’
07. ‘I Believe in Magic’
08. ‘Letter to God (1983)’

14. ‘Life of the Spider (Draft)’
15. ‘Hurt Feelings’
16. ‘Lucky’

18. ‘The Great Impersonator’

‘The Great Impersonator’ will serve as the follow-up to 2021’s ‘If I Can’t Have Love, I Want Power’, and marks Halsey’s fifth studio album. In June Halsey released the single ‘The End’ as the record’s first single, which detailed her experience of being diagnosed with Lupus SLE and a rare T-cell lymphoproliferative disorder in 2022.

She followed it up with the Britney Spears-sampling ‘Lucky’ the following month, and more recently dropped ‘Lonely Is The Muse’. Halsey also debuted a new song called ‘Ego’ at an intimate gig in London this summer.

Halsey has since teased that her new record will be “all over the place” and “full of experimentation”, and opened up about the “complex feelings” after she suffered a miscarriage during a show in 2015.
