A day after they celebrated their 32nd birthday, musical twins Tegan and Sara have released a new single titled "Closer." According to Tegan Quin, the synth-infused pop song is about young love in its purest form.

"Although I do imagine that ['Closer'] would be an OK song to make out to, all I intended was to write something sweet that reminded the listener of a time before sex, complicated relationships, drama and heartbreak," Quin shared with Rolling Stone.

Listen to "Closer" via Soundcloud:

"Closer" will appear on Tegan and Sara's as of yet unnamed seventh studio album, due in January 2013. Watch for a video due out next Tuesday.
