Rhys Lewis releases new single ‘No Right To Love You’

Words: Sam Geary

London pop-soul singer Rhys Lewis released latest single ‘No Right To Love You’, last Friday through out on Decca

The new single showcases Rhys’ ability to take moments from his everyday life and pack them full of sentimental, lyrical introspection.

“This song is about a really difficult break-up and I would say it’s definitely the most personal song I’ve ever written," says Rhys. "I remember waking up the next day and immediately thinking I’d made the wrong decision. But you’re in such a weird place after a break-up because your emotions are all over the place, and often it’s not because you don’t love them, it’s just maybe not quite working anymore. I knew that it was for the best, but you can’t just turn off your feelings for someone overnight. It was so difficult for me I had to actually leave London because everything around me reminded me of her.

"I went to stay with a friend and that’s when I wrote the song. I hope the song does justice to how I felt waking up and living that first day apart from her, it’s a painful process whatever side of the break-up you’re on.”
