"'Castles in the Snow’ I wrote in a hotel on tour about a very short relationship I had before in New York, which was too good to be true and then just disappeared.
This song is actually contrary to what you said earlier about your in the end positive contact with other people. Here we find you in a twisted King Midas moment, when you sing, ‘everything I touch goes cold.’
There’s this undeniable sense, that everything’s a good pleading for something. We are falling apart, deteriorating our bodies. Everything’s slipping away. But for this it’s about a more particular situation, I’m not commenting on everyone in the world. The song may be big, but this moment was fast and strong.
Do you get feedback from the people you sing about?
Actually the ‘Castles in the Snow’ person wouldn’t talk to me, so let’s see if she does now. But I like feedback of all possible people, who see themselves in the songs."
