St. Vincent Starts Believing in Miracles Again on New Song ‘DOA’

The record appears in the newly released A24 film Death of a Unicorn starring Paul Rudd and Jenna Ortega

St. Vincent rediscovers the magic of miracles on her latest song “DOA,” a featured selection from the soundtrack to A24‘s Death of a Unicorn. The record has the pacing of a high-intensity action sequence, but its lyrics communicate a hazy sense of euphoria.

“Right as I had stopped believing in miracles/In comes a unicorn right in front of me/Oh, you’re wild, but child you gotta run next to me/You are the ecstasy in the center of the whole world,” Annie Clark sings. “All myth, no lies, don’t act surprised/That your purple dream making the scene/Only the pure of heart will get the picture/’Cause you’re some new kind of drug/One I can’t get enough of/So let me hold your horn and see the future.”

In theaters now, Alex Scharfman’s Death of a Unicorn stars Paul Rudd and Jenna Ortega as a father-daughter duo. According to a synopsis of the film, their characters “accidentally hit and kill a unicorn while en route to a weekend retreat, where his billionaire boss (Richard E. Grant) seeks to exploit the creature’s miraculous curative properties.” It also stars Will Poulter and Téa Leoni. “If you’ve ever fantasized about seeing not just the death of a unicorn but also multiple deaths by unicorn, this movie will make your dreams come true,” Rolling Stone‘s David Fear wrote in a review of the film.

“DOA” marks the first release from St. Vincent since 2024 when Clark released Todos Nacen Gritando, which rebuilt her seventh studio album All Born Screaming into an entirely Spanish-language record. “It was a tall order. I don’t think I thought about how much work it really was going to be when I was like, ‘I’m going to do the whole record in Spanish,” she told Rolling Stone at the time. “It was genuinely a really heavy lift. But I needed to see it through. When you need to do something, you do it.”
