Bain has stated that "Lilo" was about her relationship with singer-songwriter Marika Hackman.[2] The lyrics deal heavily with themes of falling in love and subsequently falling out of love, wrapped around the imagery of a "lilo", British slang for a personal flotation device.[3][4] Bain later asked Hackman to appear in the music video, after the actress originally cast dropped out.[5]
Releaseedit
"Lilo" was premiered on Zane Lowe's Beats 1 show on 27 September 2018, the same day as the single's official release via Dirty Hit/Interscope Records.[6] The music video was released on 29 October 2018.[2] The music video was praised for its atmospheric cinematography and the intimacy of its subject matter.[7][8]
Receptionedit
"Lilo" received positive reviews from critics, especially for its vocals, composition and lyrics.[9][10] Gabriel Aikins of Substream magazine praised "Lilo" for Bain's vocals and use of electronic filters, and described the lyrics as "descriptive and affecting".[1]Melodic's Jones Willingham also praised the single for its pacing and emotionality,[11]
In 2019, Billboard included the song in its list of the "30 Lesbian Love Songs".[12]
