I loved writing and recording DARLING It was so much fun because it painted a clear picture of my trip to New York Which I loved a lot I was visiting a friend of mine, and had a wonderful time over there Just packing up my suitcase between coming back from our first UK support tour And the start of our KAOS tour in 2018 Was such a good getaway from personal shit I needed to leave behind for a little while And to be honest, I never really took the time to do something for me And such a trip was the perfect opportunity It was so inspiring seeing my friend living there, and experiencing the rhythm of the city And the mindset of the few people I met there We wrote DARLING in a session with our friend Sebastian Who is also known as GEISTHA and does great electronic music I remember we were working on the verse When I went to another room, sat down on the piano Came up with the chorus and told the guys: "So, here's the thing We need to plan these two parts together 'Cause I'm pretty sure that this chorus is one of the best I could come up with." I loved that it worked out Production-wise, I also love that we went with the long outro This is something we would do live, but not on record So, we thought: "Why not? Let's try it Let's try to get more of the live feeling on record and just go with it" I hope you have a lot of fun listening to this one
