On Friday (April 17), Charli released the music video for her latest single “Forever,” a love-you-from-afar electronic ballad that sees the star promising her love to the listener, even when they’re apart. “I’ll love you forever / Even when we’re not together / I will always love you,” she sings.

The video for the track sees the pop star curating and compiling more than 5,000 phone camera clips sent in by her fans (know as the Angels) of life both before and after social isolation.
