Troye said the following about the track to auspop: ""Wild" was one of the last songs we (he and Alex Hope) wrote and I think it's because before, I would have been too nervous to even let the session start heading into that poppier space. Finding that trust between us meant that we could stray further into the pop world and still feel sure that the song was going to be cool and authentic. Only once we knew the space, sound and the project so well, could we let ourselves explore that. Now it's one of my favourite songs I've ever written."

It's funny...my first exposures to Troye have more-or-less gone the Sam Smith route. "Papercut" was the first song with him on it that I've heard, and now there's this. The difference is, while I was put off by what came after "Latch", the same cannot be said for this, to say the least. Not only is this nothing short of amazing, I am so here for this video trilogy concept. I assume Parts 2 and 3 will further explore the childhood friends-become-lovers concept? Which is all kinds of heartwarming.

Not as brilliant and immediate as "Happy Little Pill", but still pretty good. The video definitely enhances the song even more.

Single debuts at #16 on the ARIA chart. The full EP enters at #1 as well.
The EP also enters at #5 on the UK albums chart.

Single #62 in Ireland, EP at #5. Happy Little Pill went to #11 here last year and got some airplay (I remember hearing it once)

Coincidentally, it peaked at #62 in the UK too (I mean, it shares the same spot in both singles and album charts with Ireland) and #38 in the New Zealand, while the EP reached at #3 in the latter. Hopefully this gets sent for adds I also hope the same if it's considered that it was mentioned on the iHeartMedia Music Summit from early August. That said, I had my doubts if the Capitol sizzle included the track or the EP since both have the same name, but the word EP wasn't written on the article from AllAccess, so I'm inclined with the former. As a side note, if it's taken into consideration that Troye's debut album will also be released this year, I guess Capitol could be planning to send for adds the first single from the album instead of this, but let's see what happens in the following days.

I go to skip it and then remember I love it once it gets past the first few seconds. If anyone makes that edit, would love to hear it :)

I already tried by inverting the "wild" vocals from the end of the song over the other areas with it, and it only worked from the intro :(

The chant makes the song seem...juvenile? I don't that element either, but it's a very good song. He's very talented.
