“King” is a song with a powerful impact to the listeners by Years & Years. Oliver Alexander Thornton, known professionally as Olly Alexander, is an English prolific singer, actor and LGBT activist.
He rose to prominence as the lead singer of the pop band Years & Years, who achieved two number-one albums on the UK Albums Chart, a number-one single and five top-ten entries on the UK Singles Chart.
However, this song is about feeling trapped in a toxic relationship where someone has control over you.
The singer talks about wanting to break free from this control and regain their own power and independence.
In this song, the person being sung about is like a “king” having complete authority over the singer’s emotions and actions. Enjoy it!!!
