About This Track
'Sims' frames a chance encounter as a missed connection, imagining how differently things might have unfolded had the timing been right. Lauv wishes aloud for alternative scenarios: meeting at a museum instead of a Halloween party, having the clarity of a video game where mistakes can be rewound, or simply being sober enough to hold onto the moment. The song dwells in the gap between what happened and what might have been. The track builds its melancholy around a simple, powerful idea: that the right person at the wrong time is its own kind of loss. Each verse sketches a different fantasy of correction, each chorus returning to the same refrain of regret. It's a song about powerlessness dressed up as wishful thinking, the kind of late-night reflection that comes when you know you've already let someone slip away.

During a brief visit to London, we pinned the current-and-future pop megastar down to work out just why he’s so massive.
