"So, Divinity. That was... it's the first song on the album, and I think it's the first song I wrote that was really in... the 'Worlds style'. And by that I mean like, 90-ish BPM, um, that sort of chord atmosphere and sensibility and the structure that really begins with a hook... um, to me, that's where the whole style sort of came out of. Uh, and, Amy Millan, of course - she did this, like, wonderful, gorgeous vocal. Um, she's from the band Stars, which was one of my real, like high-school, um, high-school records that I got really really sentimental about. Um, you know their song "Ageless Beauty"... I mеan... yeah, that... that band is so good. And I think, like, I don't know, I remеmber writing "Divinity", and it was when I was- it was one of the first songs that I wrote off the album. And to me, you know I'd written that intro, with that, that little 'ya-ah!' type sound, and I just felt that it was so hook-y, and I think that actually I hadn't written it as an intro initially, but I knew it needed to be moved to the front of the production, and then everything just really flowed out of it from there, and then I like, resolved, I'm... "This, this feels very me." And I felt like I had kind of stumbled upon the sound of Worlds. That's why I felt it was really critical to have it as the first song on the album."
