Of the song, Erin says the polarising sound was a very organic process where the collaborators, Godriguez & Ken Allars, had total creative freedom. “I gave them a very fragile melody, with no expectation of likeness to anything else or intentional message to convey. Dave (Godriguez) & Ken are both artists that I have a beautiful connection to musically and I simply leave the music in their hands. It’s exciting to see what comes back and rewarding to hear each time that the three of us naturally fulfil a role that the song needs.”
