Speaking on ‘I Thought About You’, Blair Davie says: “In the midst of a fairly dark EP thematically, I wanted a song that just embraces the joy and optimism of falling in love. It’s imagining a beautiful future, dancing in golden hour sunlight, walking down the aisle and all the wonderfully mundane bits in between.”
As seen across the EP, ‘I Thought About You’ highlights Blair’s unique ability to translate the most powerful of emotions into tracks that feel equally as impactful on an arena stage, as they do through a pair of headphones. You Like Ugly, Don’t You Babe? Deluxe Version sees Blair continue to expand into a more rhythm-led sound, whilst exploring themes of love, identity, resilience and transformation.
Speaking on the deluxe EP, Blair says: “It completes the story. ‘Don’t Look Back’ is about leaving my family in Scotland to start a new life with the person all these songs are about; ‘Mess Like Mine’ is about learning to be open; ‘I Thought About You’ is the emotional outburst of falling in love for the first time. Put together, it’s the whole arc – breaking, opening up, and finally letting someone in.”
Blair Davie has been quickly established as one of the UK’s most compelling emerging voices, Davie is known for a rare vocal tone and emotionally direct songwriting. Davie’s work sits alongside artists such as Alex Warren, Dermot Kennedy, Tom Odell and Lewis Capaldi, balancing intimacy with widescreen, anthemic impact.
