James Righton delivers new single "Lover Boy"
James Righton has shared new single "Lover Boy" as the fifth preview of his Jim, I’m Still Here album that's out next month.
"Lover Boy" will appear on Jim, I'm Still Here with earlier singles "Never Give Up On The City", "Empty Rooms" featuring ABBA’s Benny Andersson, "Pause" and last year's "Release Party".
Righton says of the new single, "Lockdown was a time when life paused and thoughts and memories came in. I started to think about the friends I hadn’t seen in a while. Friends who were once a big part of my life. Friends I miss. I thought lots about how life takes you to different places but the memories of friends you always take with you. "Lover Boy" is about a friend. He’s someone who I spent many good times with. We now live on different sides of the world and have different lives but I wanted to write a song about how great I think he is."
Jim, I'm Still Here will follow Righton's 2020 album The Performer, and was created in collaboration with David and Stephen Dewaele (Soulwax).
