Years & Years just dropped another single off their upcoming album
Palo Santo, and I guarantee it'll get you out of that gross post-breakup funk. Seasoned with a bouncy beat, a subtle dash of clapping, and an abundance of confident lines that will set you free, "If You're Over Me" is packed with all of the ingredients to heal a damaged heart.
In a press release, frontman Olly Alexander explained how the song is about the struggle of “trying to stay companions with an ex" which doesn't often work out for most of us. "In fact, in my experience, the relationship often ends up ruined," he states. "‘If You're Over Me’ is about the emotional torture that ensues—meeting up and making out, then breaking up all over again, then making out some more.”
