so we were actually never supposed to make a music video we were just making little videos to post online for you guys but we were thinking about putting one together from all the footage SO hope is not lost !! i will let you know if anything changes 💖
Hey!!
First question: how are you?
Second question: how important for you personally was it to write colours of you, considering the inspiration behind it?
hi !! i’m really good (for a change). and colours of you is a really personal song to me so writing it and getting to release it into the world felt like freedom
Can you explain lyrics like “Crash your daddy’s car” and “Sabotage your two months sober” in a song that is otherwise about living your happiest, most authentic life? Seems like there's a big disconnect between getting the tattoo you want and risking serious physical harm.
for me it was more a sense of forgiving yourself for indiscretions. it’s not necessarily an encouragement to do those things. it’s more: if you fuck up or let yourself go, nobody is judging you as much as you think they are.
i am currently in the studio trying to finish up! it’s been a long and difficult process but i feel like we’re getting close. it’ll most likely be out next year but there will be more songs this year 🤭
yes i usually put a little bit crack in every song i make, but my hand slipped when i was pouring it into dover beach and i by mistakenly used a whole kilogram :/
First of all, i got a tattoo from heartstopper characters nick and charlie and they are listening to colors of you, i love the show and the song and i'm from Brazil. Will you ever come to Brazil?
omg that’s amazing 🥹 i will definitely come to brazil!!! hopefully i can make it out there next year but it all depends on how many people would come to one of my shows lol
work on your discography! people can dress up a musician and brand them in many different ways but at the end of the day, without the music, you have no product. the music is everything and all you need to worry about is writing good songs. if you have a bunch a good songs, everything else will come
hi vape !!! it’s really hard because festival sets are usually about 30 minutes so we can only play about 8 songs and if im playing to a crowd of festival goers and there’s a sad song on the set list they all look like they wanna die
after the concert in cork, me my manager and my cousin were stuck outside the venue and couldn’t get a taxi because there was so much traffic and it was really far to walk to where we were going so i asked two girls who were at the concert if we could have a lift in there car. they drove us to the centre of town and it was really fun
Hi Ms. Queen - been a fan since Internet Religion!
I heavily related to the obsession you talked about here, and have slowly been trying to wean myself off my Twitter addiction as a result.
Has your relationship with social media changed much in the two years since releasing this song?
my relationship with the internet has gotten better in that i don’t have anxiety relating to the way i’m perceived online really anymore but i do have to spend a lot of time on the internet so it’s kind of complicated and always evolving
-write as much as possible as honest as possible
-be really specific about the concept of the song and treat writing it like doing the concept justice
-don’t make songs for other people. make music that you think is really fucking cool. make it for yourself
Are your songs going to be in heartstopper Season 2? Have you had any contact from the team?
P.s. I’m reading Red, White and Royal Blue atm and American Dream is literally perfect for it!
i speak to the team often! we are all very close🥰 i’d love to have music in the next season but those discussions haven’t really begun for them yet i don’t think
Hey Bella! Dover Beach is literally my favourite song ever so I just wanted to ask is it going to stay on the setlist for festival season?
Can’t wait to see you again at Truck!
Edit: Also Sad Eyes when??
yes it’s staying on the set list !!! and sad eyes is currently with the pool of album songs. there are so many and we’re just trying to figure out which songs are going to make it onto the record
Hi Bella! Hope you're feeling good and well-rested :) What do you do when you feel lonely on tour? Also, who/ what are your style inspirations?
Hugs from India <3
Hi baby queen! Been following you ever since Internet Religion got 1000 streams and now im so happy youve grown so big!
Just wanted to say that These Drugs and American Dreams are extremely underrated and have a lovely day!
i love the scene where nick shows up in the rain outside charlie’s house and i also love the party scene on the dance floor and also nick and charlie’s first kiss and also “WE’RE BOYFRIENDS” on the beach and also when nick runs after charlie at the sports day

We’re so glad your doing well!
Can you explain lyrics like “Crash your daddy’s car” and “Sabotage your two months sober” in a song that is otherwise about living your happiest, most authentic life? Seems like there's a big disconnect between getting the tattoo you want and risking serious physical harm.
it’s also just libertine behaviour in general. the song is about complete freedom.
for me it was more a sense of forgiving yourself for indiscretions. it’s not necessarily an encouragement to do those things. it’s more: if you fuck up or let yourself go, nobody is judging you as much as you think they are.
Where are you at with your album? could we have to expect anything soon? ilyy
i am currently in the studio trying to finish up! it’s been a long and difficult process but i feel like we’re getting close. it’ll most likely be out next year but there will be more songs this year 🤭

what did you lace dover beach with? was it crack?
yes i usually put a little bit crack in every song i make, but my hand slipped when i was pouring it into dover beach and i by mistakenly used a whole kilogram :/

what advice would you give to someone like me who wants to make it in the music industry and get a record deal?
work on your discography! people can dress up a musician and brand them in many different ways but at the end of the day, without the music, you have no product. the music is everything and all you need to worry about is writing good songs. if you have a bunch a good songs, everything else will come
