MerahPutih.com - Ditayangkan secara perdana di Apple New Music Daily beberapa waktu lalu, Wolf Alice menaikkan antusiasme untuk perilisan album keempat yang telah ditunggu ini dengan lagu baru White Horses.
Ini adalah satu-satunya lagu dalam album The Clearing yang menampilkan drummer Joel Amey sebagai vokal utama sebelum menjadi duet harmonis dengan Ellie.
Lagu ini berawal dari sebuah demo yang lahir dari beberapa lirik pada aplikasi catatannya, yang ditulis selama perjalanan bersama ibu, bibi, dan saudara perempuannya dalam mobil. Joel kembali menulis lirik tersebut menjelang akhir rekaman album baru ini untuk mengembangkan tema di dalamnya.

Lirik Lagu White Horses - Wolf Alice
Music and love have magnetic properties
Wrote a scholar from the island that they kept from me
And I don’t need to solve my unknown identity
Just need an answer to the question in the taxi
My sister paints apathy like blasphemy
But I never thought names deserve such energy
It's my choice to choose who I embrace as family
It’s my choice to choose yeah my choice to choose yeah
Know who I am that’s important to me
Do what I can to see the wood from the trees
Know who I am that’s important to me
Let the branches wrap their arms around me
I could just wander always like a leaf on the southeast breeze
I do not need no rooting, I carry home with me
To be on Nomad floating on the waves of the channel sea
I can see England waving, white horses carry me
Music and love have magnetic properties
Wrote a scholar from the island that they kept from me
And I don't need to solve my unknown identity
Just need an answer to the question in the taxi
My sister paints apathy like blasphemy
I’ve seen god’s green earth with the people closest to me
It's my choice to choose who I embrace as family
I choose you yeah I choose you yeah
(far)
