Gone

by Charli XCX & Christine and the Queens

Gone cover art

This powerhouse collaboration fuses infectious 1980s synth-pop with chaotic, glitching modern production courtesy of A.G. Cook. The bilingual track addresses feelings of intense social anxiety, alienation, and the desire to escape overwhelming social situations. It famously concludes with a blistering, distorted drum-and-bass breakdown, perfectly simulating an overwhelming panic attack dissolving into catharsis.
