Parts of that time were disorderly, however the tune concentrates on the bond we had through all of it.

Soft secrets brush versus crisp drum hits, supplying the soundbed for Jordan’s tranquil singing texture to inform the story. Jordan states: “Promise checks out insecurity and doubt that can exist within a relationship. Still making a promise and holding onto hope that it can still work in between 2 individuals. Parts of it were edited a years back with the unbelievable Rosie Lowe, and the tune simply stuck with me through the years before lastly discovering its location and coming to life on the record”.
This in turn, prospered the album’s very first single, ‘Enemies. Embodying a ’70s-tinged psych-soul noise, ‘Enemies’ brings an easygoing, rootsy heat and a hazy, summer-tinged feel, the track records the aspiration and fearless spirit of the album. Jordan states: ‘Enemies’ has a spirited, nearly big-headed energy to it, not from bitterness, however from self-esteem. It’s an ownership tune about not taking anymore crap, increasing above previous characteristics, and turning all of that into favorable energy. It’s devoted to all the opponents of my past, haha”.
