Frogtoon Music - Song Info: Fruit

”Fruit” Is A Single And The Penultimate Track To Oliver Sim's Debut Studio Album "Hideous Bastard". The Song Is A Sweeping Number That Lives Somewhere Between A Ballad And A Banger Recalling Saccharine Love Songs Of The ’80s. But “Fruit” Isn’t An Ode To A Lover Instead It Acts As Sim’s Proclamation Of Self-Acceptance Rejoicing In Queer Identity. Those Familiar With Jamie Xx’s Solo Material Will Recognize His Kaleidoscopic Clubby Touch Though Sim’s Deep Vocals Ensure The Track Is All His Own. He Said The Following About The Track In An Interview "Funny Enough This Is The Hardest Song To Explain Because I Think It Kind Of Says It All. It’s The Very Drag Race Moment Of ‘What Would You Say To Five-Year-Old Oliver?’ So It Is Talking To Five-Year-Old Me But It’s Also Very Much Talking To Me Today Because There Is A Part Of Me That Is Still Five Years Old. I’m Still A Sensitive Child But Now I’m Hearing The Things That I Would Want To Hear." — Via Apple Music Sim Also Shared The Following From A Press Release "My New Song Produced By Jamie Xx. Music Video Directed By One Of My Absolute Favourite Directors The Sexy Hilarious Scary And Soulful Yann Gonzalez. Dig In And I Hope You Enjoy. In Five Weeks’ Time I Will Be Playing My First Ever Solo Shows In London Paris Berlin New York And L.A. Joined By Some Very Talented New Friends. I’ll Be Playing My Extensive Back Catalogue Of Two Songs And Something Extra ? Come See Me."
