Face to Face by Rex Orange County Song Info
“Face To Face” is the third single off of Rex Orange County’s third studio album "Pony". Following its release, Rex described this song in an Instagram post, stating: "THIS SONG IS ABOUT BEING AWAY FROM HOME , FEELING TRAPPED IN AN UNDESIRABLE SITUATION & FINDING IT DIFFICULT TO TRUST PEOPLE ." During the song, Rex talks about Facetiming his girlfriend instead of seeing her face-to-face (in-person) and the difficulties of having a long-distance relationship, presumably while touring for his concert live shows. The track itself features a very soothing piano instrumental accompanied by strings in the first half. This sound eventually progresses exponentially as more percussion comes into play during the last half of the track.
