The Editor’s singer Tom Smith is taking a break from them to pursue solo work and he’s not trying to be radical, he’s doing what he knows he does best: “I’ve just always had the calling to write and sing sad songs.”
Called ‘Lights of New York City’, it “pines for lost youth, a song looking back at the wide-eyed wonder held in a previous chapter of my life,” Smith explained.
Smith went on to say Editors’ songs often start in this stripped back format when Smith outlines them and then get expanded. Here, Smith is keeping them intimate.
