Originally released in 2016 as an acoustic recording from Tom Walker’s debut EP Blessings, the Manchester singer revamped the track for his debut album What a Time To Be Alive. The new version is a dreamy, reggae-tinged track which was dropped on January 11, 2019 as the follow-up single to his breakthrough hit “Leave a Light On.”

Tom Walker wrote this love song about his girlfriend Annie. By the time he rereleased the track they’d got engaged.

Tom Walker said on Instagram:

Well, last year was the best year of my life. I would assume most people will think that because of music, but it’s actually because I proposed to the LOVE of my life Annie, and she said YES!!! As a little celebration I thought I’d put a little spin on the original. I know this song means a lot to a lot of people out there, but you can’t begin to understand what it means to me and Annie. She is my queen, my one and only and makes me happier than anyone could possibly imagine. P.S feel free call me a soppy cheesy bastard, I’m cool with it. feels nice to be in love and be loved back all the same

The video was shot in Southend-on-Sea, where the pier is famous for being the world’s longest pleasure pier. A pier is a platform sticking out into water, usually the sea, which people walk along or use when getting onto or off boats, however many other useful facilities and attractions can also be found.
