You is the third studio album by British singer-songwriter James Arthur. Released on 18 October 2019,[3] it spawned the singles "Naked", "Empty Space", "Falling Like the Stars", "Treehouse", "Finally Feel Good", "You", and "Quite Miss Home". Arthur embarked on the You – Up Close and Personal tour in North America from 13 September 2019 to 23 September 2019[citation needed] and was on the UK You – Up Close and Personal tour until 29 October 2019.[4] The album debuted at number two on the UK Albums Chart.

Background

[edit]

Arthur told 1883 Magazine in June 2019 that the album was "pretty much finished" and that it was undergoing mixing and mastering.[5] He described it as "diverse, conceptual, [and] soulful" as well as "inspired by the stories of others" and "definitely not introspective" as compared to his previous album, 2016's Back from the Edge.[5]

Critical reception

[edit]

Writing for the Star Tribune, Mark Kennedy gave an overall negative review, calling Arthur "buried in sadness [on You]", adding "[t]o borrow a song title from him, if you can get through this album, you can get through anything".[6] Lisa-Marie Ferla of The Arts Desk gave it a mixed review: she awarded it 3 out of 5 stars but said "[p]rune away at least four soporific ballads, though, and you'll find a decent pop-soul album".[7] Phoebe Luckhurst from The Evening Standard gave a positive review, stating "He demonstrates his range on soulful 'Marine Parade', and the R'n'B-inflected 'If We Can Get Through This We Can Get Through Anything'. He's in intelligent power-ballad form in 'Car's Outside' and 'Quite Miss Home'".[8]
