James Blake confirms new single "You’re Too Precious" is arriving this week
James Blake has announced that his new single "You're Too Precious" is being released this week.
Blake first revealed the single title in October 2019 at Austin City Limits, and explained that it's about "wanting to take a little bit of someone's load, I guess, and just loving that person."
Last night (20 April), Blake finally announced the release date for "You're Too Precious", revealing it'll arrive on Friday (24 April).

"You're Too Precious" will be his first new single since releasing Assume Form vinyl bonus track "Mulholland" last April.
