Me & You Together Song

## Music video

 **"Me & You Together Song"** is a song by British pop rock band The 1975. The song is the third single from the band's fourth studio album, *Notes on a Conditional Form*. The single was released on 16 January 2020.

## Background

*"We’ve gone full circle–this album is very like the early EPs: dreamy, hazy, and quite broken and deconstructed. A lot of our hardcore fans emotionally relate to our EPs and see them as our first albums, so it’s nice that we’ve ended up back there. Our favorite music is music that’s kind of inherently beautiful. It’s not pretty but kind of fractured or a bit jangly or overly distorted. I think the whole record is like that, and this is a stark example of that idea."*
“Me & You Together Song” features Matty singing about being infatuated with a friend who doesn’t feel the same way that he does about her, as well as the dreams and fantasies that it causes you to have. It features treble-heavy guitar influence with consistent, bouncy drums, which is reminiscent of the sound heard throughout their first self-titled album released in 2013.

The track was premiered as a live performance on BBC Radio 1 on January 16, 2020, as the “Hottest Record in the World” with Annie Mac. The release date and premiere was announced by Matty on Instagram on January 7, 2020. However, the title was initially teased on October 24, 2019 on Matty’s Instagram story.

## Lyrics

I can't remember when we met

Because she didn't have a top on (Top on)

I improvised a little bit

She said my references were spot on (Spot on)

"Can I take you for a drink?"

She said, "Oh God, I'll have to think

Because we're mates, it doesn't feel right" (Feel right)

And I said, "It's cool," and "I was messing," but it's true

Yeah, it's you, you're the one that makes me feel right

I've been in love with her for ages

And I can't seem to get it right

I fell in love with her in stages

My whole life

I had a dream where we had kids

You would cook, I'd do the nappies (Nappies)

We went to Winter Wonderland

And it was shit, but we were happy (Happy)

I'm sorry that I'm kinda queer

It's not as weird as it appears

It's 'cause my body doesn't stop me (Stop me)

Oh, it's okay, lots of people think I'm gay

But we're friends, so it's cool, why would it not be? (Not be)

I've been in love with her for ages

And I can't seem to get it right

I fell in love with her in stages

My whole life

And there's been no way for me to say

That I felt a certain way

In stages, oh

I think the story needs more pages, yes

I've been in love with her for ages

(For ages) And ages

I've been in love with her for ages

(For ages) And ages

I've been in love with her for ages

For ages and ages

I've been in love with her for ages

For ages and ages, yeah

I've been in love with you for ages

For ages and ages, yeah

I've been in love with you for ages

For ages

I've been in love with you for ages
