On Friday, June 25th, Beabadoobee performed on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon. Fallon introduced the alternative rock artist and the song she would be performing, “Last Day on Earth.” The singer and her band begin the performance on a colorfully decorated stage, and then throughout the song, they moved around the set to different scenes. In one area, there was a DJ at a party, in another, girls were dancing and jumping on a bed, and in another, the actor Simon Pegg was eating an ice cream cone.

When “Last Day On Earth” was released as a single earlier this year, Beabadoobee talked about its meaning in a statement saying “‘Last Day on Earth’ is about all the things I would have done had I known we were going into a lockdown and the world was going to change the way it has. It was written shortly after the first main lockdown and lyrically it’s me reflecting on how it would feel if we all knew ahead of time what was going to happen. All the things I would have done if I knew it was the last day of our old normality.”
“Last Day On Earth” is included on Beabadoobee’s EP called Our Extended Play, which was released last week. The album was co-written by Matt Healy and George Daniel of the 1975. Beabadoobee talked about the process of writing the EP in a statement saying, “I wrote and recorded the EP on a farm with Matty and George from the 1975 in the countryside. It was really nice being able to create together, my first time writing and recording in that kind of setting. I wanted to experiment on the sounds and sonics even more and the EP to me has a feeling of togetherness to it… how we’re all in this joined as one.”
