I LOVE this. Years & Years have been simmering for a while now but this may be their true breakout hit. Get that Kitsune smash!
PS- Also hot right now is their feature on Tourist's new single "Illuminate."

This is the second song I've heard today (after the Smallpools song) with lyrics that are just real. First verse is its weak point tho, could be why I opted to give this a second listen to convince myself on this one.

Debuts at #22 in the UK, becoming their first Top 40 as a lead act (second overall) there. I was expecting a Top 20 debut though >:(
#7. "Sunlight" (The Magician featuring Years & Years) #22. "Desire"

Looks like Australia has synchronized with the US this time because the track has been delivered to radios there this week.

Some days ago, it was revealed that a new music video from Years & Years was coming out soon according to this and it was announced today that it's from this track. https://www.instagram.com/p/BCLXFUUymxt It's coming out on March 4 and looks like the track has re-recorded vocals from Olly, so it may be pushed again in the UK as well.

This is actually probably my least favourite song on the album (not including deluxe tracks). So the fact they're apparently pushing it again is kind of annoying. I'm so over King but I'd probably rather they do that instead.

I still love this and it's my favorite song from them. This didn't do well anywhere if I remember correctly, so I guess it kinda makes sense for a repush.

As much as I like this, I would prefer it if "Shine" is re-released.

Ok yes this is one of my favorites from this album but how many chances is this going to get?
That said, if it manages succcess this time, I'll be pleased.
Also, I do not like the re-recorded vocals in that snippet.

The only reason I could think of why Years & Years are re-releasing this one is because they want another Top 20 in the UK if it's considered that it debuted and peaked at #22 there and they may want four Top 20 there instead of three. Another possibility is that they may be planning to re-release it in the US, but I think this is a long shot though.
As much as I like this, I would prefer it if "Shine" is re-released. Why would they re-release "Shine" if it reached at #2 in the UK and made the Top 20 in Australia? This would be strange. However, I assume you mean in the US, but that track was never released there.

Oh, OK!! I'll take that. ETA: Oh, yeah, you can hear her in the preview they posted earlier on Facebook - I just didn't notice it before. It's clearly her voice in the very first vocalization at the beginning of the clip in the video.

What? Ok I'll have to hear this. I wasn't into that snippet of Olly's re-recorded vocals but let's see what Queen Tove is bringing.

I remember there were some rumours about it, but this is the confirmation that I needed.

I think the use of "YAAAAS" is justified in this case. :'(

Artwork: (from iTunes NZ)The track received its first play on Capital Breakfast where Olly Alexander talked to them and the music video is expected to be premiered at midnight UK time. Also, there's an updated version of Communion where this track is included.

I like it. I like the new bridge. I don't think their voices blend all that well together on the chorus though. I guess I can chart this for a third time.
