We premiered the emotionally weighted ballad by Stockholm’s Sailor & I last month and three weeks on, to coin a phrase from the song itself “it’s not getting any easier” to rid ourselves from its brooding sense of love gone wrong.
Now accompanied by an equally affecting video, the Black Butter signees cement their position as creators of one of the most moving songs of the year. Flawless, in every sense of the word.
‘Tough Love’ is released next Monday, 7 July.
