About the reimagined version, Kelsea commented, “I can’t believe it’s been ten years since ‘Love Me Like You Mean It’. To say that song changed my life is a massive understatement. It’s a part of who I am and the beginning of my journey as an artist. To celebrate its 10th birthday by sharing this Reimagined Version with my fans feels full circle and is the perfect palate cleanser before new music. I hope everyone loves this, dare I say ‘grown up’ version, as much as I do!”
Originally released on 8th July 2014, ‘Love Me Like You Mean It’ launched Ballerini as a global star. The song made her the first female Country music artist on an independent label to top the Billboard Country Airplay Chart and it has amassed more than 248 million all-time streams.
Ballerini is currently in the studio recording the follow-up to her EP ‘Rolling Up The Welcome Mat‘. She is also nominated at the 2024 CMT Music Awards for ‘Video of the Year’, ‘Female Video of the Year’ and ‘CMT Performance of the Year’.
