"Closer" is a song by New Zealand band Six60, released as the third single from their 2017 extended play Six60.
Release and promotion
"Closer" was one of six tracks released weekly in the build-up to their Six60 EP,[3] on 27 October 2017.[4] "Closer" became the most played song on New Zealand radio in May 2018, after the EP's lead single "Don't Give It Up" spent six months from November 2017 to May 2018 at the top of the radio airplay rankings.[5]
Critical reception
Katie Parker of Radio New Zealand felt that the song "nails Six60's penchant for writing songs ostensibly about something but actually about nothing", and described "Closer" as being "like a list of hashtags beneath a very inoffensive, but somehow still upsetting, Instagram".[2]
