Anderson (Boogie Nights, There Will Be Blood) began working with Haim in 2017 on the accompanying visuals to their second album, ‘Something To Tell You’. He then created the artwork and videos for their latest record, 2020’s ‘Women In Music Pt. III’.

Yesterday (February 28) Haim teased the ‘Lost Track’ lyric “I’ll never get back what I lost track of“ while reflecting on how the song came to be.

“We had that line written for the last year but could never figure out what to do with it,” they wrote in a statement on social media. “We kept writing it down, not knowing where it should live.

“Cut to PTA shooting the director’s cut issue for [W magazine] with our baby sister [Alana] on the cover! An opportunity arose to do a quick music component while shooting the story.”

Haim continued: “Paul mentioned having the book ‘Appointment in Samarra’ as a possible direction. So we did some digging around the book and were inspired by the scene where the main character throws a drink in someone’s face at a country club.

“We were inspired by the idea of someone doing something so drastic to get out of a situation they felt uncomfortable in – just to feel something. We finally remembered that lyric and wrote and recorded the song and shot the whole thing in a few days!”

The sisters described the finished track and its accompanying visuals as “very collaborative” and “off the cuff”, explaining that the creative process “felt fun”.
