Phoebe Green unveils new single, "Precious Things"

Manchester's Phoebe Green has returned with new single, "Precious Things", along with the announcement of a UK headline tour next April.

"Precious Things" follows Phoebe Green's Ask Me Now EP, which was released earlier this year.

"I really wanted to write a song about the obsessive, almost fan-like behaviour that we can exhibit in romantic relationships; I love borderline creepy lyrics that are a combination of uncomfortable and almost comedic when expressing love for something or someone," Green explains. "I wanted to contrast this with a truly devastating chorus that almost feels sacrificial, a willingness to be of use in any way to someone just to feel needed. I like that sonically both of these ideas are reflected also, the verses are sort of nursery rhyme-jolly so that the deeper meaning is concealed somewhat, whereas the chorus is just fully heart-on-sleeve yearning with the big synthy choral sound."

"Precious Things" is out now.
