BEHIND THE SONG

“Too Close” is an upbeat and searching song. The drums move on at a steady clip as the lyrics detail the way two people get to know each other better and better. There’s a danger with any kind of closeness, the risk of being hurt. “How close is too close?” sings Smith. “I wish we could find out.” It’s set in one of Smith’s poppiest and most direct melodies. The song thrums with equal parts hope and fear, a longing for resolution but also a sense of worry as to what that resolution might be.
