Then Because She Goes by The 1975 Song Info
“Then Because She Goes” is a 90s-reminiscent love track flooded with guitars and dreamy vocals by lead singer Matthew Healy. Matthew sings about having to part with someone he loves- though not permanently- and the sadness that comes with it for the pair of them. "It doesn’t have a bridge or anything. It’s just this little moment. But this is how I feel about life. There’s so many fleeting moments of beauty on the record, which was really important because most of my favourite records always have them. Especially if we’re talking about shoegaze records. I think a lot of that comes from the slacker mid-’90s thing of Pavement or Liz Phair. There’s a lot of Life Without Buildings and stuff like that, especially in this song. And it’s like faded splendour, as I always call it. I love pop songs that sound like they’re drowning. Like My Bloody Valentine. Like a Polaroid that’s gasping for air. That really sunny but sun-flared feeling is quite across the record because—for the time and for the kind of person that I am, and my political views—it’s inherently quite a warm record." - via Apple Music
