Background
The song was recorded in RCA Studio A in Nashville, Tennessee.[1][2]
Critical reception
Smooth Radio labelled the song "gorgeous".[3] The Independent noted "the track dials into the family-friendly Seventies soft rock of bands like America with its casual electric guitars and falsetto yearnings".[4]
Music video
The music video was directed by Ben Tricklebank and is based on the idea that the band are like three caged birds. They are longing to escape but individually aren't certain if they can still fly. Only once they are together are they able to take flight again.
Tricklebank stated: "Universal sent out a really interesting brief that was centered around a technique of connecting moments through windows within each scene."[5]
Chart performance
"Windows" entered the UK Singles Downloads Chart at number three on 29 September 2023.[6]
