Dove Cameron Premieres 'Girl Like Me,' Reveals How The Song Came About - Listen

The 26-year-old singer and actress debuted the single on Friday (December 9), and it’s actually a bit of a cover.

Listen and learn more inside…

“Girl Like Me” is a gender-flipped new version of Edwyn Collins‘ 1994 song “Girl Like You.”

“I grew up listening to the original by Edwyn Collins and it’s been one of my favorite songs since as long as I can remember. I wanted to cover it for ages,” Dove shared of the song. “Then one day, we had the idea to gender flip it, or rather, write an empowering response to the original- with a slightly more synth-y club future leaning point of view. This song is what I would want playing behind me in a slow motion fight scene in the action film of my dreams.”

In case you missed it, Dove will be performing during a New Year’s Eve special!
