Jul 10, 2020
“Real Love Song” is the new single off Nothing But Thieves’ forthcoming third studio album, “Moral Panic,” set for release on October 23rd via RCA Records. A psychedelic lyric video has been unveiled for the song as well. This track was produced by Mike Crossey who previously worked with The 1975, Arctic Monkeys, and Wolf Alice.
The band described this song as such: "'Real Love Song' was an attempt to write a song about love from a self-aware perspective. It's about the darker side of love – the painful, unrequited kind. It's love lost or love never gained."
