Amelie comments\u2026<\/p>\n
\u201cAng\u00e8le\u2019s voice was the only one I could imagine on this track. I have been such a fan of hers for so long, I think she\u2019s a truly special talent and that\u2019s why she\u2019s the only other artist and only collab on my whole album.\u201d<\/p>\n
The track has already made a huge impression, with\u00a0Ang\u00e8le\u00a0adding:<\/p>\n
\u201cI met\u00a0Amelie\u00a0through mutual friends, and every time we see each other, whether it\u2019s in Belgium or somewhere else in the world, we just click instantly. I love her energy and her determination. I got the chance to see her last year at Glastonbury, I got goosebumps straight away. When she called to ask if I\u2019d be on a track from her first album, I heard the track and didn\u2019t even have to think about it. I admire her so much, both as an artist and as a woman. I\u2019m really happy we finally got to make something together.\u201d<\/p>\n
Tune in now.<\/p>\n
