Background edit

Rumours of a duet between Cardle and Melanie C began in early May 2013 after she attended his concert at Union Chapel on 2 May.[2] It was confirmed on 30 June on his website, when it was announced as the first single from his forthcoming album. Cardle said, "I met Melanie at the Isle of Wight Festival last year. I’m a big fan and I’ve always loved her voice."[3] Speaking of the song he said, "I had already started writing "Loving You", and I thought with a few changes it could work perfectly as a duet".[3]

The song premiered on The Ken Bruce Show on BBC Radio 2 on 2 July 2013.[4] A lyric video was uploaded on YouTube on the same day. On 25 July a Spanish version of the song, titled "Te Amo", was released on YouTube and made available to pre-order on iTunes.[5]

Throughout, there are close up shots of their bodies laying together on a mattress, apart at first then becoming closer together until finally kissing at the end.
