"Ready, Steady, Go!" is the shortest song on Harry Styles' new album — 2 minutes 40 seconds — and it might be the most deliberately mysterious. There's a Depeche Mode synth nobody's talking about, Harry singing in Italian for a very specific reason, and a line — "But you call Leon" — that has sent fans into a spiral. Plus: the 1963 British TV show hidden in the title, and why this tiny song is doing massive structural work on the album.
Behind The Lines — we go deeper than the chorus.
