Lou’s “Vital” is a high-energy confession of how irresistible attraction can feel absolutely essential to life itself. From the very first beat her heart “races, races, races,” and the singer dives head-first into a whirlwind where music, desire, and dance fuse together. She turns the volume up, cuts ties with reality, and lets her senses catch fire while her partner becomes the “star of all [her] secrets.”
Throughout the track Lou plays with vivid images — a pirate boarding her skin, a ping-pong match in her mind, and a sorbet melting in the heat. Every line shouts urgency: she wants to breathe her lover in, feel every spark on her skin, and lose herself in the rhythm they share. The message is clear: when chemistry strikes this hot, it stops time, blurs the world, and feels, quite literally, vital.
