Earlier this year, Sondre Lerche released the excellent voyeuristic single “I’m Always Watching You,” and today he’s sharing an alternate vision of the same song called “I’m Always Watching You Too,” which takes the warm bombastic pop of the original and twists it into icy tendrils. Here’s how the songwriter explains the new take:

The night before I was going to record I’m Always Watching You, I awoke from dream about the song. In the dream the song was slower, anchored by a sluggish dub-groove, and a narrative that was turning on me: I was being watched. I had been found out. It proved impossible to bridge the dream with the more natural, realistic version that became the original take on the song. But I couldn’t let go of the dream, and the hazy recording I made on my phone in the middle of that night became my guide for a different take on the same dream. A response, of sorts: I’m Always Watching You Too.
