Best New songOh Wonder — High On Humans
Posted by LetsLoop on June 8, 2017, 5:55 pm High On Humans is the 5th single from London-based indie-pop duo @Oh Wonder's upcoming album, Ultralife, which is out June 16th and follows up their self-titled 2015 debut album, Oh Wonder.In typically London fashion, the band's latest single was influenced by a series of interactions on the tube. Here's the full story:
"On the way back from Heathrow Airport, I eavesdropped on a conversation between two girls who worked in a sunglasses shop at the terminal. They were happily going back and forth discussing their favourite foods. When one girl declared that she didn’t like hot sauce, I rudely interrupted and said, ‘What do you mean you don’t like hot sauce?!’. We then proceeded to have a twenty minute conversation about food, and the three of us exited the carriage high on adrenaline having connected with strangers.
I then went onto another train and chatted to a man who had knocked all his teeth out and was covered in blood. It created a carriage-wide conversation about injuries and operations. Everyone’s mood seemed lifted by this random interaction with the unknown. On the way back home from the station, I sang ‘I’m getting high on humans’ into voice notes on my phone, and sat down with Anthony to fully write it the next day.
This song celebrates the potential to ‘get high’ and feel liberated by talking to strangers. It’s something we all fear, and something we should all do more of."
Ultralife will also feature Heavy, My Friends, Lifetimes and the excellent lead single and title track, Ultralife.
