Lolita (The Veronicas song)
"Lolita" is a song recorded by Australian duo The Veronicas, released on 27 July 2012. It was written by The Veronicas' Jessica Origliasso and Lisa Origliasso, together with Laura Pergolizzi and Toby Gad, while production was handled by Gad. The song was released as the lead single for what was meant to be their third studio album ''Life on Mars''. However, due to complications with their label Warner Bros. Records the album was shelved. They were subsequently signed to Sony Music and the album was retitled ''The Veronicas'', but "Lolita" did not appear on the record.
"Lolita" is inspired by the Vladimir Nabokov novel of the same name and explores the themes of power play in intimate relationships between people who differ in age and sex. The track was received positively by critics who praised the dark recording. "Lolita" charted in Australia at number twenty three on the ARIA Singles Chart and was certified gold.
The accompanying music video for "Lolita" was directed by Spencer Susser and features Lisa and Jessica leading an army of masked individuals to attack an alien. To promote the track, The Veronicas performed on various television and radio programs in Australia.
==Background==
In 2009, after concluding the Revenge Is Sweeter Tour for their second studio album ''Hook Me Up'' (2007), Lisa Origliasso and Jessica Origliasso, wanting to seek creativity separately, took time off from working together. In 2010, following their break, the duo began work on their third album, enlisting the help of Butch Vig, Nellee Hooper, Daniel Johns and long time collaborator Toby Gad.〔 The Veronicas were unable to release new music due to internal changes that occurred at their record label Warner Bros. Records, however, in spite of this, they made an appearance at The Viper Room in 2011 to perform new songs for their yet untitled album. By 5 July 2012, the duo announced, through an eight second teaser video, that the title of their new single was "Lolita". They also teased the first lines of the chorus and second verse on their Twitter account on 12 July and 21 July, respectively. Around this time it was revealed that ''Life on Mars'' was the title of their third album.〔 Initially ''Life on Mars'' was to be released by the end of 2012, however, Warner Music pushed the date back to 2013. By October 2013, having still not released new music, ''Life on Mars'' was mysteriously shelved. They subsequently left Warner Bros. Records and signed to Sony Music where they released their third album under the new title ''The Veronicas'' in 2014. "Lolita" was not included on the final track list for the record.
