Twelve months of romantic failures went into JC Stewart’s “The Wrong Ones”. Essentially an account of a year fruitlessly looking for the right one, the song emerged from a discussion he had with some songwriter friends. “Songwriters are a nerdy bunch of people and much less cool than we portray ourselves to be,” he tells Apple Music. “We were just talking about the disasters of love lives we’d had all year. One of the guys came up with the little guitar riff and we just wrote it. We sat there and said, ‘That’s funny!’ One thing led to another and the song’s out.” The single is packaged here with a companion piece, “Stay”, which Stewart describes as yin to the yang of “The Wrong Ones”. “I was so obsessed with finding the right one,” he says. “I’d just moved to London, and I was like, ‘Big city, big dreams, big lights, the one must be out here.’ I was so used to not finding her, and then I met this one girl and she was amazing. ‘Stay’ is essentially about how I was dead freaking out like, ‘Oh, now I’m not actually ready for this at all!’”
