Olly Alexander shares club-ready new single ‘When We Kiss’ 

Olly Alexander has offered up another taste of his forthcoming album ‘Polari’ with ‘When We Kiss’ - a floor-filling club anthem replete with ’80s synth-pop influences. 

The former Years & Years frontman and Eurovision entrant announced his first solo album under his own name back in October, and he’s since shared a string of self-assured pop bops including ‘Cupid’s Bow’, ‘Archangel’, and the LP’s title track. 

Speaking about his latest cut, Olly has explained that ‘When We Kiss’ is “an epic love song about a difficult moment in a relationship, when you don’t know whether you should break up or if you should stay together forever. I wanted this song to reflect those conflicted feelings, all the pain and ecstasy of loving someone.” 

He continues: “I believe heartbreak and synthesizers are made for each other and I had the best time making this with my ‘Polari’ partner Danny L Harle. Our aim was to take the listener on a rapturous journey of heartfelt emotion, from anguish to euphoria and back again.”
