Fans have been anticipating the release of a new album by Beyonce. Official word hasn’t been released on a possible album date, but fans can take a listen at the latest track to be leaked, “Standing On The Sun”.
The sultry, summer song was first heard in an H&M commercial in April. Beyonce has partnered with the clothing company to create a new, affordable line. She also performed “Standing On The Sun” live during her tour stop in Antwerp, Belgium, on the Mrs. Carter Show.
The track includes heavy breathing from both male and females, and the sounds of steel drums, clasps, and island tinged synths. The Caribbean inspired song comes partnered with seductive lyrics in typical Beyonce fashion.
“Can you feel that heat on my skin?/ Can you feel all my loving?/ You and me we’re standing on the sun,” sings Beyonce. It’s still unconfirmed if this is the original version of the song or if it will appear on the upcoming album.
Beyonce will resume the Mrs. Carter World Tour stateside on Friday. She’ll hit up LA at the Staples Center before making her way through the United States. Beyonce confirmed she’d be extending her tour through the end of the year where she’ll be taking on South America in September and will wrap up the tour on December 20 in Boston.
