The song, released in September, preceded the band’s latest single, “It’s Not Living (If It’s Not With You),” and followed their tunes “TOOTIMETOOTIMETOOTIME,” “Love It If We Made It” and “Give Yourself A Try” in leading up to the anticipated release of the English rockers’ upcoming third album, A Brief Inquiry Into Online Relationships, out Nov. 30.

Healy discussed the song’s origins in a recent interview, as reported by Stereogum, the 1975 singer detailing his creative attempt to penetrate today’s jaded irony with an empathetic track seeking to create meaningful connections.

“[It’s] about me trying to denounce all of that postmodern fear of like being real, you know? Like irony first, irony first. Make sure you’re ironic because then you can’t be judged on being a person. And I’ve become so aware of the shtick that exists within my kind of lyrical narrative as well, because obviously I love everything that I’ve done previously but now as I got older I see these kind of defense mechanisms.”
