I used to dress up like Michael Jackson. I didn’t have the glove, but I had a red jacket like in Thriller. - James Bay

Hold back the river
Let me look in your eyes
Hold back the river
So I can stop for a minute and see where you hide
Hold back the river, hold back

I wanna give you wild love
The kind that never slows down
I wanna take you high up
Let our hearts be the only sound

When you make a certain sound and look your thing, it makes it all the more impactful to drop that and start with a new thing. So I cut my hair off and lost the hat. It felt only natural to me to tear that canvas down and put a new one up.
