I have been listening a lot to The Carpenters and Neil Diamond, Elton John, and thinking, like, ‘God, it’d be great to write a sort of subversive, alternative ballad,’ like Lou Reed does so well with ‘Perfect Day.’ And I really loved ‘Video Games’ – at the time, it hadn’t really got as big, but it’s a classic song; you can’t deny it.
