2022年11月に起きた出血性脳卒中を経て、力強く鳴り響く音楽。後半のドラムが入ってくるまでの流れが最高なのでぜひ聴き通してみてください。
“After my grandmother's passing, I was looking through old family photo albums, and the deep brown eyes of my grandmother really spoke to me, but also the 'green and gold' hazel eyes of myself as a young toddler," remarks Yorke. "Eyes became a link between generations, what we share in ways that are difficult to understand, and how a loved one can continue to live on through us. The intensity of the music and the vocal is an expression of the grief I was feeling. When we produced this song, we created so many beats, tracked drum parts, edited them, and later in the process we ended up peeling almost everything back to reveal the vocal and piano. When the strings were tracked, the new arrangement made sense, and had a new power that was more confident than expected.”
