Delta Goodrem On Her New Album, And Why She Wants To Be A Cat

~These wings were made to flyyyyyyy~

You'd have to be living under a rock (or possibly overseas) not to have heard Delta Goodrem's latest single "Wings". It's is a complete banger, so obviously, it went to number one on the ARIA charts. Now that her stint as judge on The Voice is over for the year, she's gearing up to bless us with a new album. If that wasn't enough, she's also staring in the Aussie production of the iconic musical Cats. Delts came into BuzzFeed Oz to chat to us about her latest adventures.

On what we can expect to come from the new album:

I think what I've learned is that every single album has been different, and every album has definitely had a theme, and normally, the theme comes to light more so later on. After the whole chapter has finished, I'll think, "Oh, that makes sense", much later. This album I've learnt that I'm making [it] the way that I do shows now. I'm a little more, at the last minutes, coming up with the show. I'm a little more spontaneous about it. This album is "Oh, ok, I'm feeling this right now". I've written a lot of songs for it, but I feel like I'm painting it a lot more spontaneously. I know when my deadline is, I know that the album is the start of next year. I know my single's coming out in another month or two, but I know that I've got to do it as a more spontaneous, heartfelt moment each time.

On the one word which sums up the ~feeling of the album~.

I'm going to go with "wings", I'm going to go with the song. It feels like it's very free, it feels like sort of saying "baby these wings were made to fly". I can do anything, you can do anything you want. And that should be something that you express for other people to feel, it's really, you know, "your wings were made to fly", it's having that feeling of utter freedom, and it's got that energy about it where you feel like you can dance around the room for hours, and that should be the record too.
