Singer celebrates fifth anniversary of How I’m Feeling Now with official visual for resurgent 2020 single
As promised, Charli XCX has shared the new video for “Party 4 U” to celebrate the fifth anniversary of her album How I’m Feeling Now, which was released on this day in 2020.
The Mitch Ryan-directed video, based on a concept by the singer, concludes with Charli XCX setting a billboard with her own face on it on fire, perhaps a metaphor for her closing out that chapter in her life.
A day before the “Party 4 U” video’s arrival, Charli XCX reflected on How I’m Feeling Now, as well as the song’s surprise resurgence five years after its release.
“So much has changed since then: me, my life, elements of my music and most definitely the world,” XCX wrote.
“I made the album in just five weeks, from conception to release, entirely publicly in collaboration with all of you. It was so special. I felt like I rediscovered myself, my sanity + my sense of connection with the world, at a time where we were all so alone.”

In addition to the “Party 4 U” video, Charli XCX is also celebrating How I’m Feeling Now’s anniversary with a limited-time-only vinyl repress of the LP, which is available now at her online shop.
“Obviously I wanted to do something to celebrate,” Charli hinted in the handwritten letter. “It was all of us at our most raw, our most stripped, our most vulnerable. I will never forget it, and I really can’t believe that 5 years later one of the Angel favorites is having its own special moment.”
