I can't say this is my favorite song by The Chainsmokers, but it does contain one of my best drops I've ever heard. That is probably due to the collaboration with Illenium, another one of my top artists who is known for creating these massive walls of sound that are sonically beautiful.
Obviously an acoustic version of the song doesn't capture that aspect of the song, but it does give a chance to focus on the vocals and lyrics which can sometimes take a back seat in electronic music - in a good way IMO. There is a line in the song that is super simple yet captures so much depth:
Fate, fate, fate
Is that what what came between us
Or did we do this on our own?
I feel like the question of fate vs free will is as old as time and applies across so many different aspects of our lives. In this context it's about a relationship specifically, but is still something I'm sure many people experience.
Either way, I had a lot of fun putting this one together and I hope you enjoy it! Thanks for listening!
