Polybag has "Made In Canada" sticker on the back, indicating this pressing was made for the US and Canada markets. This pinhole focus underpins lead single Part of the Band, which eschews festival-headliner bombast in favour of rustic minimalism.

I’m in Love With You is the band at their most joyously straightforward, Healy repeating the title with an increasing light-headedness. We're certainly not the first people to note that Being Funny In A Foreign Language is a break from the norm for The 1975. Their third studio album, ‘A Brief Inquiry Into Online Relationships’, also won ‘Mastercard British Album of the Year’ at the 2019 ceremony.

About You, a delicate duet with Carly Holt, wife of the band’s guitarist Adam Hann, finds Healy trying desperately to remember a fading relationship over cascading guitars and increasingly vaporous vocals, while the country-hewn When We Are Together leans into the precise songwriting of pop’s best storyteller, Taylor Swift.
