Where Is Gone?

The harmony avoids conventional dominant-tonic resolution almost entirely, relying instead on the natural minor scale's flattened VII and III to create a suspended, cinematic atmosphere. This open-ended harmonic language suits the orchestral arrangement and gives both Chatten and Rosalía room to shape melody freely over relatively static chord movement — closer to soundtrack writing than standard verse-chorus pop harmony.

Written by all five members of Fontaines D.C. — Grian Chatten, Carlos O'Connell, Conor Curley, Conor Deegan III, and Tom Coll. The collaboration with Rosalía grew partly from guitarist Carlos O'Connell's Spanish upbringing; he described Rosalía as an artist preserving Spanish music in the same way Fontaines D.C. had with Irish music.

Released in October 2026 as the third single from Dopamine Chamber, "Where Is Gone?" pairs Grian Chatten's brooding vocals with Rosalía's voice over sweeping string arrangements. The track peaked at number 6 in Ireland and drew comparisons to Ennio Morricone from NME, marking the first time Fontaines D.C. have shared a credit with another artist.
