"Two Way Street" comes from Vows, the debut album by New Zealand singer Kimbra, and it became the record's fifth single in 2012. She wrote it with the Australian producer François Tétaz, who produced it, with Kimbra sharing the production and mixing credits, and the result has the warm, lo-fi glow of a late-night confession.

The song was hardly new by then: she had already performed it at Sing Sing Studios in Melbourne on 28 September 2010, in a run-through of the entire album, two years before its official release. Reviews were mostly kind, with more than one critic ranking it above her song with Gotye, and Matthew Rolston directed the video, which premiered online in July 2012.
