To say I was obsessed with this song when it was first released in the fall of 2018, would be an understatement. I was a fan of Joji since back in the “Filthy Frank & Pink Guy” days (See: Harlem Shake…if you know you know).
When I first heard the synth and melody, I was hooked and immediately in an emotional mood I hadn’t felt before. The production alone is impressive and Joji belting out the chorus still, to this day…puts me in the same mood I was in, when I first heard it.
For me, this song’s narrative is about a man deciding…reluctantly maybe, to not stay in a relationship when he’s fighting to keep it alive and finally wants to stop fronting and just ask where they’re actually going. It paralleled my life around that time and it’s possibly why I connected so deeply.
Joji has blown up since this song first released and I’d recommend check his discography and see the progress he’s became as a musician.
