“Nice To Each Other” by Olivia Dean explores the complexities of casual, non-committal, and emotionally balanced relationships, reflecting the internal struggle between wanting someone and simultaneously protecting one’s independence.
The song’s music video complements its tone, featuring Dean on a rehearsal film set with two-dimensional backgrounds, interacting with the props and production crew, enhancing the sense of whimsical romance and the aesthetic of a classic musical.

Lyrics.-
Here we are, back again
Fighting what’s in front of me
There’s so much to unpack again
But if I come to Italy
We could be nice to each other
Nice to each other
Wrong for each other
Right for each other
And rise to each other
Rise to each other
I don’t know where the switches are
Or where you keep the cutlery
And I’ll probably crash your stupid car
And make your life a misery
But we could be nice to each other
Nice to each other
Wrong for each other
Right for each other
And rise to each other
Rise to each other
Cos you know I’ve done all the classic stuff
And it never works you know it
So can we say we’ll never say the classic stuff
Just show it
Now and know it
Now now now now
Meet me on the mountain top
I’ll be in the shallow end
And wait for you to call it off
Cos I don’t want a boyfriend
But we could be nice to each other
Nice to each other
Wrong for each other
Right for each other
And rise to each other
Rise to each other
Cos you know I’ve done all the classic stuff
And it never works you know it
So can we say we’ll never say the classic stuff
Just show it
Water sunlight talking all night
Just enough to grow it
Now and know it
Now now now now
It could be nice
It could be so nice
Oh we could be nice to
Oh to each other
Mmm we could be nice to
Oh to each other
Mm it could be nice to
Oh to each other
Mmm we could be nice to
Oh to each other
