Alessia Cara Announces Single “Growing Pains” By Having Fans Piece Together Lyrics

After almost three years since her debut album Know-It-All, Alessia Cara is releasing the first single off of her sophomore album.

Alessia rolled out the single by sending pieces of the song to 25 different fans. With the help of a few hints, fans were quickly able to make sense of the lyrics. They worked together to figure out which section was the chorus, what order the lyrics should go in, and even the song title.
