Call Me was written by the English singer-songwriter alone at home in Somerset, and recorded with BRIT Award-winning producer Mike Spencer at The Larks Tongue studio in Buckinghamshire. She said:
“In the various lockdowns I found myself wishing I’d done things and hadn’t done things when I had the chance. Big things and small things. I wish I’d gone on that random night out, I wish I hadn’t said that mean thing, I wish I called that person back, I wish I had sat out and enjoyed the sun.
It’s like, if only I could go back in time and experience these things when I had the chance to. It’s as if I didn’t have the memories and experiences, I thought I’d need to get me through the extended solitude of early 2021. It’s kinda like, if you change your mind, I’ve changed my mind too so call me.”
The dynamic indie-pop track finds Aplin fusing synths and piano for three-and-a-half minutes of peaks and troughs, with the highlight being a soaring, earworm chorus. Press play below.
The new material has set tongues wagging that a follow-up to her 2020 album 'Dear Happy' is on the way, though nothing has yet been confirmed.
