AJ Wander has released his new single ‘When You Say I Love You’.  The song is one of several tracks recorded in London and Barcelona with producer Brad Mair (Dean Lewis, Jamie Cullum, Kygo) which will culminate in AJ Wander’s first EP due in late 2022. AJ Wander’s debut single, ‘Time Out’, was written soon after an explosive breakup and represents the moment that he realised he had to let his first love go. This single has garnered over 4M streams in just over one year. 

Whipping up stirring emotion through elegant piano and a fist-clenching chorus, ‘When You Say I Love You’ is an emotive new ballad from AJ Wander. The track exudes hair raising tension throughout as it broods at first before kinetic electronics push the soundscape to cinematic heights. Oozing conflicting emotion, Wander’s warm passionate vocals sing earnest lyrics amidst gripping instrumental builds and a lush, catchy melody. ‘When You Say I Love You’ is beautifully arranged and highlights Wander’s compelling musicianship and expressive songwriting.

Speaking of the single AJ Wander said: “When You Say I Love You is about someone falling for you too fast and that desire to go along with it just because you don’t want them to experience rejection. Eventually, you arrive at a realisation that pretending to be in love is not healthy, so you choose to be honest, but telling them that you need to slow things down is an emotional minefield.”
