After one year in Los Angeles, West Michigan native Børns landed a record deal with Interscope, and the album Candy was released to much critical acclaim.

“Electric Love” followed up the single “10,000 Emerald Pools.” The floaty, guitar-driven instrumental and melodically mature melody offsets the double entendre of the lover as heroin theme.

The song was eventually certified Platinum by the RIAA on Feb. 26, 2017.
