Sampling William Orbit’s 2006 song “Spiral” featuring Sugababes and Kenna, PinkPantheress seems to be dealing with a complicated situation between her and a best friend where they lose contact with each other, as she finds their conversations cold and “unemotional.”
While “Nice to Know You” marks P...
[Intro]
Mm
Mm
[Verse 1]
How could you make it seem so obvious?
Wait until the end, tell me we'll stay best friends
How could you make it feel so obvious? (Oh)
Watching what you do, I'll still respond to you
[Pre-Chorus]
(Ooh) I'm emotional
You made a mess, you know?
Said you're approachable (Uh, stop it)
And I'm the next to go
You're unemotional
You were nice to know
[Chorus]
Nothing's really sane, but everything's amazing
Slowly taking over me
Baby, have you noticed the sky is rearranging?
I feel it move in me (Mm)
Nothing's really sane, but everything's amazing
Slowly taking over me
Baby, have you noticed the sky is rearranging?
Unemotional, you were nice to know (Hmm)
[Verse 2]
You see, I know this isn't light for a Friday night
But there's something in my brain, and I wanna make sure I'm saying it right (Ooh)
The status check is due, so do I still belong to you? (Uh)
You look me in the eye and say with a smile, "It'll be alright"
[Pre-Chorus]
(Ooh) I'm emotional
You made a mess, you know?
Said you're approachable (Uh, what was that?)
And I'm the next to go
You're unemotional
You were nice to know
[Chorus]
Nothing's really sane, but everything's amazing
Slowly taking over me
Baby, have you noticed the sky is rearranging?
I feel it move in me (Hmm, you see)
Nothing's really sane, but everything's amazing
Slowly taking over me (Oh-oh-oh)
Baby, have you noticed the sky is rearranging?
Unemotional, you were nice to know (Mm)
[Outro]
Oh, oh, it was nice to know
Oh, oh, oh, it was nice to know

If anyone can clock the sample at first listen I’ll be very shocked and very surprised happily. There’s actually a Sugababes sample that’s in a song called “Nice to Know You.” They did a song with William Orbit, he was the guy that produced for Britney Spears a lot. Madonna, “Frozen,” “Ray Of Light,...
Probably “Nice to Know You” was like, the last song that I accepted to be on it [Fancy That] and that was like, made very last minute.

Yes, there is. In a photo shared on an Instagram post by aksel arvid, a draft tracklist for Fancy That can be seen, where the song was originally titled “Twenty Four.,” which is likely a reference to PinkPantheress' age when the song was released. This would have been the second time Pink would hav...
On May 14, 2025, PinkPantheress released lyric videos for the songs on Fancy That. All the videos are stylized as fan-made lyric videos from the late 2000’s and were uploaded on the artist’s secondary youtube account, PP_ROCKSXX, the same account used to release the music videos for “Just for me” an...
The meaning of “Nice to Know You” by PinkPantheress is about the mixed feelings that go through a person when a friendship is over. Pink shares having loving memories while most importantly accepting the pain of moving on, perfectly describing the one-of-two-things nature of love and sorrow.
