"Hoops"
Song

Hoops is a song released by Australian alternative rock group, The Rubens. It was the second single released from their second studio album of the same name.

The track was voted in at number 1 on the Triple J Hottest 100, 2015. [1]

Band member Sam Margin said “"Hoops" came as we were getting mixes on what we thought was the finished album. We kept writing just for something to keep us occupied, but when this one came up we felt it had to be on the album. It's about being in a relationship with someone who does damaging things to keep you close, when really their actions are pointless because you love them despite it all.” [2]
