The band's words: "Social media can be amazing. Social media can also be divisive and make us feel like we're in competition with each other. This song is about that feeling. We wrote it for our album and it felt really true at the time, but now things are changing. With all that's going on it feels so wonderful to be able to connect with each other digitally. Social media can still be a tough place at times, but it definitely feels like some of the pretence has dropped. Long may that continue!"
"We were thinking about this change a lot this week, so we made a video for that song. It's called Lies off our debut album Be Kind. It was our FAVOURITE to play live before all this happened! Written (and half recorded) over a loop in a cottage in Culdaff, Inishowen. Same time as Rainbow Ballroom. Moog Model D, cowbell and vocals added in Belfast. Lead chorus synth was called “ghost” for its spookiness. A placeholder till we wrote something good. It stayed."
