JC Stewart has released the lyric video for his new single I Need You To Hate Me.
The song was inspired by the the same break-up that JC explored in his earlier single Have You Had Enough Wine? The lyrics are set to acoustic guitar and understated beats, and the songās verses document the story of a faltering relationship.
Watch the lyric video:
āThere was a moment where we were just going through the motions,ā JC recalls. āAnd I was like, āInstead of doing this, Iād rather that you hated me because thereād be something more to cling on to.ā The vibe was that we were really drifting apart.ā
He wrote I Need You To Hate Me alongside the songās producer Matt Schwartz (Yungblud) and Stephen āKozā Kozmeniuk (Dua Lipa).
Recently JC filmed a quarantine-themed take on the Friends theme tune I’ll Be There For You. It was shared by Jennifer Aniston on Instagram and it’s had more than 5 million views so far.
