Composition
[edit]Music journalists described "Perfect Stranger" as a dance-pop[3][4] song with garage influences. Lyrically, the song discusses not wanting to know the intimate details of a potential partner's life, but rather "embracing the present moment".[5] Writing for The New York Times, Jon Pareles claimed Twigs "[made] the case for an anonymous hookup on 'Perfect Stranger'" and considered the track "neater and poppier than most FKA Twigs songs."[6]
Music video
[edit]The music video for "Perfect Stranger" premiered alongside the single on 17 October 2024. It depicts Twigs in various vignettes of diverse romantic relationships. American musician Yves Tumor, Nigerian-born British designer Mowalola Ogunlesi and English actress Phoebe Waller-Bridge appear as some of her partners.[7][8]
