The artist has returned with his dreamy new song ‘rentrer chez moi’, which lyrically sees Chris wishing to return home. It is the first single he has released since his 2023 album ‘PARANOÏA, ANGELS, TRUE LOVE’.
“This song makes me cry because it is true, so much love I have for you, this deep decision to always stay honest – for the dance to be then the shared moment, the joyful celebration,” Chris said of the track. “One moment together. A wholesome surrender. One love, from one to the next, before I danced for this video I listened to Barbara.
The statement continued: “I remember / Her dancing in the living room, her approach of movement / A celebration, A sharing / A dance that would express the inside of you, as poem”.

NME spoke to Christine and the Queens in 2018, where he opened up about the role of performance in his music: “Everyone’s regularly performative,” Chris said. “I think the building up of a character is something universal. This is why we are moved by drag queens and pop stars, I think. [This is] just the incandescent, more extreme version of what we all do – it gets to be more flamboyant in the pop realm.”
In a three-star review of ‘PARANOÏA, ANGELS, TRUE LOVE’, NME shared: “When an artist prepossessed with so much greatness takes such a fall in quality, you have to ask, with quite a lot of sincerity: is he OK? Come back, Chris, and shake us up once again.”
In other news, Chris has teamed up with MGMT for their blissful collab ‘Dancing In Babylon’, which appears on MGMT‘s new album ‘Loss of Life‘.
