Having recently previewed the entirety of her upcoming third album to a private audience in New York, FKA twigs has made her return to social media to share a new clip of "EUSEXUA", which has been reported but not yet confirmed to be the album's title.
A short message posted on X ("hi twiglets 🌱") on Friday night was shortly followed by a 16-second video teaser for the song, captioned "are you ready to discover?" In the heavily symbolic video, twigs is shown having her trademark braids shaved off and getting teary as she surveys her new self in the mirror.

As for when we'll get to hear the full song, new posters appearing in cities asking "HAVE YOU EXPERIENCED EUSEXUA?" suggest that, at most, it will be two more weeks: "13.09.24"

Speaking to Vogue magazine recently, twigs explained the neologism eusexua as the feeling of being so euphorically caught up in something – dancing, kissing, creating – that you lose all sense of time, adding:
"It's this kind of meditative, amazing, beautiful, physical experience. For me, it's also the moment before I get a really good idea. Of pure clarity. Like, when everything moves out of the way, everything in your mind is completely blank and your mind is elevated. That's eusexua. And that is the only place I want to be now. That's when I feel the most like myself. When everything's completely clear and you know, you say like, "What have I learned over the past few years?" I've just been removing anything that stops me from being in eusexua."

@voguemagazine You know that feeling when you're so euphorically lost in what you're doing? #FKATwigs made up a word for that— eusexua. It doesn't stop there, though #BritishVogue's April cover star shares the entirety of her "Twig's Glossary" with #TheRunThrough ♬ original sound - Vogue
