"I Follow Rivers" is an ominous, bass-driven pop song tinged with Lykke's smoky, echoed vocals. The lyrics speak of a relentless pursuit prompted by matters of the heart. "You're my river running high, run deep run wild. I, I follow, I follow you deep sea baby, I follow you." The sentiment is not all that different from The Police's "Every Breath You Take," but here it is infinitely less creepy and somewhat endearing. Lykke is not stalker-ish here, she's loyal, dedicated, and persistent. The result is an assertive single that will resonate well in our headphones until Lykke's record drops.
