With less than three days to go until they release their highly anticipated LP Amo and just one day before they launch their US headliner with Thrice and FEVER 333, Bring Me The Horizon is giving fans a look into their fourth new single “Mother Tongue.”
While premiering on Zane Lowe’s World Record on Apple Music’s Beats 1, frontman Oli Sykes told Lowe all about the song’s inspiration saying: “The whole album’s kind of explores loving and different aspects of that. Toxic relationships and the end of relationships, really. It’s also about the positive side of love and obviously when you first fall in love, it’s got to be the greatest feeling.”
Sykes went on to add, “[‘Mother Tongue’ is] probably the most gushing, out-there, just straight-up love song we’ve ever written. This was one of the easier ones to write because it was positive. It’s about when I first met my new wife. She’s from Brazil and she didn’t speak so much English. She talked a lot better than my Portuguese, but from the very start, we had a really, really strong connection and it was just a crazy time. And this song’s just talking about those experiences, which they just stick in my head. So, that was really one of the easier ones to write about.“
