The chemistry they built after touring the US in 2019 has given the song a perfect blend of familiarity and novelty, making it an irresistible treat for the ears. This latest rendition of “Glue Song” is an ode to the power of collaboration and a testimony to the soul-stirring magic of two kindred spirits coming together to create something truly exceptional.
The lyric video released with the single adds another layer of enchantment to the already captivating track, elevating it to a whole new level of artistry. Although simplistic, the visual of a tree with a vintage camera filter creates a mesmerizing atmosphere that perfectly complements the dreamy and nostalgic mood of the song. The baby pink lyrics dance across the screen, intertwining with the image in a surreal and whimsical way; it is impossible not to be swept away by the enchanting beauty of it all.

Beabadoobee has expressed that she’s “always been inspired by [Clairo’s] melodies, and to finally have both our voices together on a track makes [her] real happy.” It’s clear from Bea’s comments that their bond goes beyond just creating music together; it’s a connection built on a shared love for their craft. With the success of the two indie stars, the new rendition is set to be a massive hit, building on the 100 million streams that the original version has already amassed.
