Charli xcx ventures onto the wild moors with House, her first taste from the Wuthering Heights soundtrack alongside John Cale, slipping out November 10, 2025, and it drifts in like fog over the Earnshaw estate, all hushed intensity and that sharp undercurrent of longing you can’t shake.
Charli’s always twisted pop into something sharper, more alive with ache, and House pulls from that well but goes deeper, haunted by the moors’ isolation. She dreamed it up after diving into the Brontë novel for Fennell’s film, channeling Heathcliff’s wild obsession into a sound that’s equal parts experimental and raw: Cale’s spoken-word vulnerability over sparse piano and swelling drones, then Charli’s voice piling on in a chorus that repeats like a curse, building to electronic pulses that mimic a heart trapped in stone walls.
It’s gothic electronica with a Velvet Underground nod, themes locking onto eternity’s weight—the beauty you chase turning into a prison, that desperate “say it’s enough” hitting like regret you can’t outrun. She called it her “elegant and brutal” love letter to the story, born from late-night talks with Cale about fame’s forever cage.
This leads the charge on the full Wuthering Heights soundtrack, a 10-track score set for early December that weaves originals into the film’s fever dream. Expect Fennell’s stamp all over it: moody builds like this one flowing into Everything is Romantic with Caroline Polachek for ethereal highs, and instrumentals that score the windswept chaos. No full list locked yet, but it’s all Charli’s vision—less club banger, more cinematic spell.
Fresh off Brat’s endless summer, Charli’s stepping into film like she owns the frame, her first full soundtrack gig showing how she’s grown from hyperpop provocateur to someone who scores souls. Teaming with Cale, at 82 still a quiet force, feels like her nodding to the weirdos who shaped her, all while Fennell’s dark wit amps the stakes. It’s her saying vulnerability isn’t soft—it’s the blade.
X is already thick with chills from her drop this morning, fans threading the video’s misty visuals against book quotes, calling it the track that makes you want to reread the whole damn thing.

Lyrics of House by Charli xcx & John Cale
[Intro: John Cale]
Can I Speak To You Privately For A Moment?
I Just Want To Explain
Explain The Circumstances
I Find Myself In
What And Who I Really Am
I’m A Prisoner
To Live For Eternity
I Was Thinking, “What Is This Place?”
I Thought It Would Be Perfect
I Thought
“I Want It To Be Perfect”
Please
Let It Be Perfect
Am I Living In Another World?
Another World I Created
For What?
If It’s Beauty
Do You See Beauty?
If There’s Beauty
Say It’s Enough
[Chorus: Charli xcx, John Cale & Charli xcx]
I Think I’m Gonna Die In This House
I Think I’m Gonna Die In This House
I Think I’m Gonna Die In This House
I Think I’m Gonna Die In This House
I Think I’m Gonna Die In This Hou― House
I Think I’m Gonna Die In This House
I Think I’m Gonna Die In This House
I Think I’m Gonna Die In This House
[Outro: John Cale]
In Every Room
I Hear Silence
