Florence and the Machine have released a brand new song, ‘Wish That You Were Here’.
The track is featured on the soundtrack to the forthcoming Tim Burton film ‘Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children’, and follows up on the three new songs shared from the soundtrack of the latest Final Fantasy game earlier this month.
Burton and Florence worked together on the track, with the singer explaining in a press release that the song is “about the idea that love is a journey and a risk. Having been on tour, I’ve lived in a sort of magical time bubble, where the days almost blend together. It’s amazing, but it comes at a cost — a cost of leaving the people you love behind for a year or two. You kind of feel like if you could sing a song into the wind, maybe the wind could take it to them in a way that you can’t with a text or a call. You just want to send your love in a different way, in a way to somehow reach the unreachable.”
Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children hits theaters on September 30th. You can check out ‘Wish That You Were Here’ below.
