Glass Animals release ‘Your Love (Déjà Vu)’

Glass Animals create this decade’s love-child of Timbaland and The Neptunes on their latest single Your Love (Déjà Vu). Dangerously addictive, ringing woodwinds and thrumming guitars are a sonic representation of Glass Animals’ lyricism in the conflicted booty-call anthem. 

On Your Love (Déjà Vu), Glass Animals explore the friction of finding a haven in chaos despite how damaging it can be. Lead singer, producer and songwriter Dave says, “I think we’ve all found ourselves in fucked up relationships that make us feel sad and helpless. Not necessarily something romantic – maybe it’s with a family member or a friend. A relationship that we know on some level is going to keep breaking our hearts. Maybe you don’t confront it because you hope it’ll change with time. Or because it’s easier to let it slide and never set boundaries. Maybe you think you deserve that unhappiness. Or maybe you find some strange comfort in the chaos.” 

The track gives a glimpse into the group’s hugely anticipated third album, with sashaying guitars and the cross-roads of doubt and desire giving the song the trademark Glass Animals vividness.

“This song is about being addicted to chaos. About doing or allowing something self-destructive because on some level you get off on the sadness that comes of it. It’s about wanting to float around and exist inside of that feeling because it has always been familiar to you. It’s something that a lot of people know from growing up in a tense household… so it can feel right to create that dynamic, even if you don’t realise you’re doing it,” shares Dave Bayley.
