James Blunt Details New Album ‘Airplane Mode’ With Single ‘Weight Of It All’

James Blunt has revealed details of his latest album Airplane Mode with new single Weight Of It All. The album is set for release on 6 November and will also contain James’s tongue-in-cheek single Tastes Like Summer.

James shared: “Somewhere back there, I lost my way, but found it again in a studio in Banbury.” He added: “There’s a mode you specifically put your phone on when you get on a plane. That’s the title of my album.” Whilst Tastes Like Summer was a more extroverted, summer-pop-leaning number, Weight Of It All, as the title suggests, is a more contemplative release, with its themes lending themselves to the album title’s idea of switching off and going on airplane mode.

Afterhrs produces Weight Of It All, with the number being written by Andrew Haas, Ian Franzino, Mikky Ekko and James Blunt.

Airplane Mode will feature twelve tracks. You can see the full Airplane Mode track list below.
