I threw a mic up quickly in the middle of the room just to capture the vibe because we were into it so much but life happened and for whatever reason it got shelved. I stumbled across it again years later and a vocal melody and lyrics just came to me, very fast and easy. It felt right so I got in touch with Ruari, he came to my studio and we got it down. As for the lyrics, you know those kind of people who enter a room, switch on their clout radar, scan for fame and then proceed to charm that person as hard as they can to further their career, while simultaneously dismissing anyone who they think doesn’t need to be bothered with? They’re about those kind of people”
