Metal

"Metal" is a song originally by Gary Numan that Poppy covered. It was released as a single on July 6th, 2018. The audio currently has over 1 million views on YouTube.

Reception
"Metal" was met with confused reception from fans and the media, expecting it to be a new single. With the recent announcement of her second album Am I a Girl?, fans expected Poppy to release the album's first single rather than a standalone cover. As such, it was met with fewer streams and views than most official Poppy singles.
