[edit] Overview
Aidan Moffat has commented on the title of the album, saying:
| “ |
It's an Eastern belief that you're connected to your life partner by an invisible red thread and by that you will always find each other. It works both as a romantic thing and a comfort just in case it all goes wrong because you've still not followed the thread. It's relevant to the doubts that are expressed in some of the songs.[1] |
