about this song

Mercury Summer Home to the album's most immediate hooks, the synth enhanced love song, is the track most directly influenced by the band's love of film. “It's a homage to the Shawshank Redemption,” says Simpson, “Andy [the lead character] dreams of escaping to Zihuananejo and that song is about you and your partner leaving your life behind and going on an adventure in search of your ultimate nirvana. The line is opens with, ‘I hope the sea is as blue as it is in my dreams’, is a direct quote from film.
