    I really, really like those lyrics. I was huge into confessional poetry at uni. Everything has sort of slipped off the radar for me, but reading those reminded me of how I felt when I would study confessional writing. It's fascinating to me, and while it's all too easy to sound cliche or forced, I've generally found Matty has a talent for that kind of thing. I'm hoping this song is something of a slow-burner, in a way. I enjoyed the juxtaposition of the lyrics and music in their previous work, but echoing my sentiment earlier about Me, I appreciate art a lot more when it doesn't try to distract from it's actual meaning, or attempt to make it more accessible. On the other hand, I also appreciate Me wouldn't exactly make for a radio-friendly unit shifter, and that being able to write and sing about these things, in whatever context, must be cathartic and a release of sorts. Sorry - rambled on. Anyway, very excited. As are all y'all.

    Yeah, had a feeling that wouldn’t go over well. Still:

    Assisted suicide
    She dreams about dying all the time
    She told me she came so close
    Filled up the bathtub and put on our first record

    First thing I thought of, sorry friends.

    Apparently, this is may be a *very* brief clip of the song. For those who want it:

    You got that from the lyrics or the tiny soundbite? I definitely see that with the lyrics. The soundbite sounded kinda twinkly to me, almost Ballad-like. But with guitars. I don’t know what I’m saying. I’ve lostmyhead.

    I said I wasn’t fussed about the hype for this, but I’m updating my other half on every Jamie tweet and a two-second clip of a new song. Help.

    Didn't someone who heard it said it was a love song? lol Might be more of a ballad-y type song. Interesting choice, if so.

    both! the electronics remind me of what they were doing with that song, not really in terms of the actual song.

    I'm in the same boat as you haha

    I hadn’t seen that, unless you mean that Radio 1 presenter who heard it and felt 15 and in love again.
