Dancing on Tables have released their new single ‘Not To Need You’.
The new single from the Dunfermline pop-rockers was written with award-winning songwriters Liz Rose (Little Big Town, Taylor Swift, Nelly Furtado) and producer Femke (Babyface, Mary J Blige).
Speaking of the single, frontman Robbie McSkimming said: “‘What do you want to write about?’ was how the process of ‘Not To Need You’ began. The person asking Callum and I (Robbie) this was Grammy award winner Liz Rose, and what followed felt more like therapy than a songwriting session. We talked about all the difficulties we faced in life as we told stories of failed friendships and heartaches, before agreeing that we wanted a song that would encapsulate the pain and hurt that people go through, but ultimately show that there is always a light at the end of the tunnel for people in all situations. Although the track focuses on someone reflecting on ending reliance on someone else, we wanted the track to apply to all scenarios where someone faces an uphill battle, and for ‘the best part of starting over, is not to need you anymore’ to give people hope that things will always get better.“
‘Not To Need You’ is a multi-layered stripped-back release, with crossover lyrical meanings which are undoubtedly relatable to many.
