Composition and reception

edit

According to Copperman, the song is about a girl "who feels like nobody pays attention to her, feeling very lonely. But she then finds hope and realises there's someone out there for her." Expressing a fondness for writing from others' perspectives, Copperman added that the song is "also loosely based on a girl I went to college with and a few of my feelings – it's impossible to completely disengage your feelings."[1]

In a two-star review of the single, The Daily Mirror wrote: "a ragbag of Oasis swagger, Coldplay polish, thoughtful bellyaching and what somebody at his record company bafflingly calls 'Robbie Williams charisma' is the inevitable result."[2]

Video

edit

The video features Ross on the set of film or TV show playing the piano with his band. The rest of the video switches between Ross interacting with his love interest (later in the video he sings to her in the rain, which we discover is artificial) and him singing.
