Queen of the Clouds might be the greatest album of the past few years that I've listened to from end to end. (Yes, people - better than True Romance - happy?) Before I listened to the whole album and just had heard this song, I thought it was a weak follow-up to "Habits" (and, to be fair, that's on my list of Best Singles of 2014, so I did think highly of it). I just wasn't a great big fan. It wasn't a bad song. It just wasn't great.....
Until I heard it in the context of the whole album - a concept album going through a relationship, from early lust and passion (where this song lies), to the middle part where it gets real and the people in it start thinking about their futures, to the breakup and the aftermath (which is where you would find "Habits"). Then it made more sense to me.
Now I want to hear the next album.
