M & J look back at the defining moment in "THE PARIS SOCIAL," an electronic release that was inspired by a relationship with Vanessa in Paris. A year into their relationship, they struggled to reach that same emotional high. And instead of a seemingly inevitable transition, the song is about a choice to leave or try to find their way back together.
The track's main idea is rooted in its personal history. When it was about talking about leaving, the answer was to try and not give up. That conversation was at the heart of the song, a relationship moment that became the music. It's an everyday kind of dialogue that addresses a broader meditation on devotion and emotional labor.
It's relatable because the hard times need the most attention in a relationship. It might not go up in flames forever, but that doesn't mean the bond isn't worth it. M & J draw on their experience and reflect on what it means to keep choosing someone when it gets tough. "THE PARIS SOCIAL" is a digital love and power in question story, and here, love doesn't have to be perfect, but the release always reminds you to decide whether the connection is worth another shot.
