Songfacts®:

  • Lead singer and guitarist Grant Nicholas told I Like Music about this song: "That was a really fun track to do. It is quite an atmospheric track and it is quite different to the rest of the album. It started off as a vocal and we brought some strings round it. It grew in a really nice way. A very experimental way. It came out exactly as we wanted. It was a track that all of us really liked, we all agreed on that one!"
