While discussing Fontaines DC, who released their Skinty Fia album last month, Williams said, "["Jackie Down The Line"] is one of my favourite songs of the year. I’m going to say top five songs of the year. Fontaines DC are killing it and I feel like it’s important to say that they have things to say."
