I kind of love the playfulness of it just being a free melody that doesn't have words and people can sort of sing along with it.
In theory, I think we've talked about doing the vocals at the same time, but I don't know if we actually, you know, I remember being in conversation of it being like a nice idea that we've sort of recorded everything in live.
I think that was aspirational because it had been written live, but I don't think we ended up doing that in the end.
There's a part towards the end of the song where we sing our individual parts that are different over each other, singing our pre-choruses.
And mine is glaciers have melted to the sea.
I wish the tide would take me over.
I've been down on my knees and you just keep on getting closer.
It's still now one of my favourite parts and we've just performed it.
But I have to block him out completely in my mind and just sing my part and not try and think about what you're saying because I'll start singing your part.
But that I kind of look back on fondly.
It's like, that's an interesting decision that we did that.
But do you remember why we did that?
I have always been drawn to romance and the euphoria of that and the heartache of that.
And I think that I was writing from some experience at this time, still very early, early love and lust and longing.
But I think we definitely spoke about it not being so specific with time, place or gender.
I think this song for me feels very open to interpretation, which I love.
We've all grown up together literally from a young age and throughout this band and throughout this process.
