Louis Tomlinson and fellow One Direction bandmate Liam Payne are the last of the original five members to release a full solo album, but that doesn’t mean they’re not gracing our ears with singles. Following collaborations with Steve Aoki and Bebe Rexha as well as the just-for-fans track ‘Just Like You’, Louis is dropping his latest single Friday.
According to his email newsletter, ‘Miss You’ is “about a time in [his] life when [he] was going out partying every night.”
In hindsight throughout that time I was pretty numb and just going through the motions. Deep down it was always in the back of my mind that what I really missed was the girl that I loved. It was important for me to write something really honest.
– Louis Tomlinson
Louis already performed this song live once, at the Royal Variety Performance — which won’t air on TV until next month — and he’ll be performing it again on the UK’s ‘X Factor’ Saturday. You won’t want to miss a single one of his promotional interviews this week, so here’s the full schedule
