Selfish sod!<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I have unequivocally told my label not to release it as a single. No one needs that much misery at the moment.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The track was the only song on the record inspired by the end of the 35-year-old star&#8217;s marriage to Beth Rouy, who he split from just six months after they tied the knot in 2019.<\/p>\n<p>He said: &#8220;I told myself no love songs or break-up songs this time. Then I went mental in one room for a while and let that one sneak in.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Who isn&#8217;t bored of break-up songs? They&#8217;re everywhere these days.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;When gigs get going again, I don&#8217;t want to be standing next to a pianist on stage, looking all sad. I want to be at festivals, kicking arse and making people dance.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Much of the record was recorded in Nashville, Tennessee, and the singer admitted being in the home of country music changed his work.<\/p>\n<p>He said: &#8220;I didn&#8217;t go to make country music, but the storytelling tradition of the city changed me. I said stuff to strangers in writing rooms there which I wouldn&#8217;t have dreamt of here.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.music-news.com\/news\/UK\/138035\/Rag-n-Bone-Man-won-t-release-new-track-as-a-single-as-it-provokes-too-much-misery\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The &#8216;Human&#8217; hitmaker&#8217;s latest album, &#8216;Life by Misadventure&#8217;, features a ballad called &#8216;Talking to Myself&#8217;, and the singer thinks it&#8217;s a very &#8220;selfish&#8221; track and its tone isn&#8217;t what the world needs right now.
