Meanwhile, in a statement, he shared more about how him and British music producer and composer Harle came up with “Dizzy”.

“I wrote the song last summer with Danny L Harle. We started off with the word ‘Dizzy’ because it just popped into my head and I liked it. I was thinking about fun things that could make you dizzy and I remember saying ‘dizzy from your kisses’ so the song is about feeling such an intense swell of emotion for someone they totally turn your world upside down and inside out,” the former Years and Years frontman stated.

“Danny and I believe music should transport you somewhere magical and we wanted to describe this magical place in the song; a place of beautiful gardens, eternal flowers and time turning endlessly in an ecstatic loop,” he further explained about the song.
