Ke$ha’s sophomore album ‘Warrior’ is out December 4th and in a chat with host supreme Ryan Seacrest, she revealed the inspiration behind the album. This is Ke$ha that we’re talking about so it comes as no surprise that she went on a journey of self discovery but at the end of the day, it was all worth it.
“The theme of this record is magic. I went on a spirit journey by myself. No security guard. No managers. I just went around the world and lived on a boat,” she explained. “I was in Africa rehabilitating baby lions. I went diving with great white sharks, and just went on this crazy spirit quest. I got hypnotized, and I just really wanted this record to be really positive, really raw, really vulnerable and about the magic of life.”
Ke$ha continued, “I got hypnotized and went into a past life experience. It was incredibly emotional and was one of the most insane things I’ve ever experienced. I wrote a song called “Past Lives” about how I believe you can really recognize somebody through their eyes. I’ve had a few different experiences where I recognize people. I feel like I know them just by looking at them in the eyes for the first time. I wrote a song about that.”
She also spoke about a track called ‘Supernatural.’ “I also have this song called ‘Supernatural‘. It’s about experiences with the supernatural…but in a sexy way.” She laughs and continues, “Well, I don’t know his name! He was a ghost. It was just like… I had a couple experiences with the supernatural. I’m very open to it.”
Fans can also look out for a pinao ballad by the name of ‘Love Into The Light.’ “I definitely have a lot of ballads. I have one song called “Love Into The Light” that I wrote by myself at my piano in Nashville in a couple of minutes. The lyrics are ‘I know we’re all different, but baby that’s life. All the differences, they make me feel alive.’”
Well … ‘Warrior’ is going to be a very interesting record. Don’t gorget guys, December 4th.
