Overview
- The single arrives with an intimate video directed by Floria Sigismondi that highlights fleeting tension, bliss, and quiet chaos.
- Goulding says recording the song felt like a catharsis that gave her a sense of escape and empowerment.
- She wrote the track a few years ago while caught between heartbreak and a feeling of emancipation.
- The arrangement adds choir and strings at the end to create what she calls a triumphant moment of surrender.
- Reports note the new full-length is expected next year and will be more personal than 2023’s intentionally impersonal Higher Than Heaven.
