“This song came from a sort of out-of-body experience I had falling in love for the last time. It was the morning I describe at the beginning of the second verse - waking up at sunrise, watching airplanes overhead, imagining where they might be headed and how great it would be to be on my way to anywhere else. But for the first time in a long time, I realised I didn’t want to go alone. I was tired of constantly saying good-bye to the person I loved, so this song represents the undercurrent of my greatest desire. I wanted the production to carry the message in a positive, upbeat way, and Chromeo seemed like the perfect fit. Their organic, somatic feel was right on point with what I imagined, and the result is a careless disco romance.” says James.
