“It’s all autobiographical,” says Sivan. “It takes place in both the suburbs of Perth where I’ve grown up, which I consider to be my blue neighbourhood, but then also in this fast-paced, crazy, whirlwind life that I’m now living in hotel rooms and planes. And it takes place inside the mind of a 20-year-old kid.”
A few years ago, Sivan’s candidness about his sexuality might have been more of a problem in some markets. In 2015, this is no longer the case. Teenage girls have never cared anyway. His songs are beautiful, stunning even in their own intangible way; his layered electropop with constant tinges of EDM contains far more depth than the work of Sam Smith (an obvious touchpoint).
