James Blake is back with tender new track "You're Too Precious", his first single of 2020.
"You're Too Precious" is his first new single since releasing Assume Form vinyl bonus track "Mulholland" last April.
Blake originally spoke of the single at Austin City Limits in October 2019, and said it's about "wanting to take a little bit of someone's load, I guess, and just loving that person."
Since the coronavirus lockdown, Blake has been hosting a couple of Instagram livestream performances - earlier this month he performed covers of Joy Division, Ray Charles, and played a new song titled "Say What You Will".
James Blake's "You're Too Precious" single is out now.
