Although Harvey wasn’t in the same room as Brown while she played the song, cameras showed the Labour leader watching her in action.

Speaking before her performance, Harvey said the track is indicative of her forthcoming new album.

“It’s an example of the next album really in that I was looking outwards a lot more. I think a lot of my work has often been about the interior,” she explained. “This time I’ve been just looking out.”
