This shoegazey interlude features a string arrangement by Miguel Atwood-Ferguson, who is a Los Angeles based multi-instrumentalist and session musician that has recorded with notable musicians such as Rihanna, Hall & Oates, John Legend and Lana Del Rey.
The phrase, and concept of having "lost my head" is a recurring motif throughout I Like It When You Sleep For…, popping up in songs like "If I Believe You" and "The Ballad of Me and My Brain."
This largely came from the first 1975 tune that Matt Healy wrote. "That song stemmed from a side project, Drive Like I Do, that I made in my bedroom," he told News.com.au. "That was one of the original demos so a lot of that stuff in that song was recorded in my bedroom in 2011. That, Medicine, which I then rewrote it for the BBC thing, and The Sound, which I wrote in 2011 as well — I wrote that melody five years ago and it never left me."
