The Chainsmokers & Halsey - Closer review


 
Closer is a song by DJ Duo The Chainsmokers and singer Halsey that was released on July 29, 2016, through Disruptor Records and Columbia Records.
 
Lyrically, Closer is a future bass pop song that celebrates both youth and heartbreak. Andrew Taggart, one of the members of The Chainsmokers, sings about dealing with a breakup on the pre-chorus with the lyrics:
 

I know it breaks your heart
Moved to the city in a broke down car
And four years, no calls
Now you're looking pretty in a hotel bar
And I can't stop
No, I can't stop

And then, Taggart continues on the chorus with:

So, baby, pull me closer in the backseat of your Rover
That I know you can't afford
Bite that tattoo on your shoulder
Pull the sheets right off the corner
Of the mattress that you stole
From your roommate back in Boulder
We ain't ever getting older

Halsey comes in being the opposite to Andrew singing:

You look as good as the day I met you
I forget just why I left you, I was insane
Stay and play that Blink-182 song
That we beat to death in Tucson, okay

I love this song by The Chainsmokers and Halsey. It's very catchy and the meaning behind it all and the fact that it was inspired by I Miss You by Blink-182 is downright amazing.
