This booming title track is a transition into a more synth-heavy sound from the guitar-driven 2018 record Lush. Starting off with eerie sci-fi synths, it builds up to a phenomenal chorus, written in the studio.

Valentine Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Let's go be alone
Where no one can see us, honey
Careful in that room
Those parasitic cameras, don't they stop to stare at you?
[Verse 2]
Can't love for us both
You've gotta live and I gotta go
As long as it's us two
Fuck being remembered, I think I was made for you
[Chorus]
So why'd you wanna erase me, darling valentine?
You'll always know where to find me when you change your mind
[Verse 3]
I'd hate to picture someone with you
I lay down and start to cry
You won't believe what just two months do
I'm older now, believe mе, I adore you
[Chorus]
So why'd you wanna erase mе, darling valentine?
You'll always know where to find me when you change your mind
So why'd you wanna erase me, darling valentine?
[Outro]
Now I can't hate you
I ruined me for you
Blame me if you need to
But I adore you
I adore you
I adore you
I adore you

Lindsey Jordan:
I was shopping around ideas for the record long before there was one, just wanting to put a title to the thing to maybe give it a start—like if there’s just an overarching vibe, then I can start to make things. It’s such a heartbreaking thing, referring to someone as your valentine...
What type of cake was in the music video?
“That cake was pretty gross, it was like a chocolate cake stacked with coconut cake with maraschino cherry sauce drizzled on it. But yeah we’re just talking about how this has been a very cake-heavy album cycle where I have been very clear to people around me that, cake is exciting to me and out the...
