“Dover Beach” is the name of Baby Queen’s third single of the year, released alongside the music video on April 14th, 2021. It was premiered as BBC Radio 1’s “Hottest Record in the World” on that same day.
"One of my favourite poems as a kid was ‘Dover Beach’ by Matthew Arnold, so it was always this really romanticised place in my head. So when I had time for another writing trip, I was like, ‘I’m going to Dover!’ It was a pretty amazing experience to write a song called ‘Dover Beach’ when you’re actually there. There’s something very magical about the white cliffs and the sea air and seeing the ocean in front of you. The concept of this song is very romantic in a way. It’s about going to a place you’ve dreamed about your whole life, but instead of experiencing it fully and having a great time, everything you see is taken over by the object of your affection. So it’s a bit like: ‘Fuck you! Now you’ve even stolen Dover Beach from me!’"
