Lanza discussed the inspiration for the song in a statement: “I was fantasizing about what everyone was thinking based on their expressions,” she said. “I found myself projecting my own feelings onto the strangers I was looking at. I went home and wrote the lyrics imagining that the commuters were having telepathic conversations with each other. The questions I imagined them asking each other oscillated from sexual to confrontational: ‘Baby is it just enough? Tell me do you want it all? Baby are you feeling tough? Feeling tougher more than not?’”
All the Time features Lanza’s “Lick in Heaven.” She recently delivered an hourlong set from her couch.
Jessy Lanza’s last LP was 2016’s Oh No. The album was shortlisted for the 2016 Polaris Music Prize; Lanza also performed at the ceremony. Later that year, she released the Oh No No No Remixes EP featuring remixes from the album by DJ Taye and DJ Spinn, Morgan Geist (aka Storm Queen), and Leon Smart as DVA [Hi:Emotions].
