British singer-songwriter Bradley Simpson, who is better known as frontman of British pop band The Vamps, released a new song “Picasso” on May 10, 2024.
The song is the second solo single, following the release of “Cry At The Moon” back in March.
Both songs will appear on his upcoming solo album, which is expected to be released in 2024.
The track was written by adley Simpson, Ina Wroldsen, and Jonny Coffer. Produced by Bradley Simpson, Jonny Coffer, and BOOTS.
Bradley Simpson said of the song, “'Picasso' is about one of those toxic loves that you know is bad for you, but there's something wonderful about it that keeps you coming back. You always hope that things will turn out for the best, so you keep giving it a chance when perhaps in hindsight, you should have stopped sooner. You also find people who can find those difficulties as part of the romance. The song allowed me to shake off those experiences and move past them.”- Bradley Simpson told Digital Journal about the song, “That song came about later in the writing process for the album. Ina [Wroldsen] was in town, and we wrote it together. I had been a massive fan of hers for a long time. Ina writes such incredible music; her lyrics are superb, and she is a great melody maker. I jumped on that opportunity immediately.”
He continued, “‘Picasso’ was the first song that we wrote together. Ina has such a beautiful talent for melodies and lyrics, and she comes out with these poetic lines. It’s a storytelling song, and while the message of it is heartbreak, it is not a sad song. I want this to be someone’s song to help get them through heartbreak and the more difficult times. I hope the fans turn it up real loud.” -
He added, “From then on, I tried to keep my team as small as possible. When I met Ina, I knew that I absolutely wanted to write more songs with her. She has become a really good friend; she is just great and amazing.” - source : Apple Music
