Background
Connor wrote the track after hearing from a mother that her teenage son had come out as gay.[3] She said that the song "stands symbolically for all boys and girls in puberty, in search of orientation and identity".[3] The name is fictitious.[4]
Critical and commercial reception
Idolator called the track a "soaring pop anthem".[5]
On 12 April 2019 "Vincent" debuted in the German charts at number 29 before dropping down to number 77 by the middle of May, by which time the song had been censored or banned by some radio stations on account of the sexual content of its opening lyrics.[6] Consistent with the Streisand effect the song subsequently rose to a peak position of number 9 as the track remained in the German charts for the rest of 2019.[7]
Promotion
Connor announced the track on her Instagram in early April 2019.[8]
