Missing You

About Missing You

"Missing You" is a song performed by British-Irish girl group The Saturdays, taken from their first EP, Headlines!. Written by Alexander Kronlund and Lukas Hilbert with production from Hilbert and James Reynolds, the song was released as the collection's lead single on 8 August 2010 as a digital download and on 9 August as a CD single. The lyrics centre on being in a relationship where the passion has died, but still being addicted to the love that used to exist. It features an electropop production, incorporating elements of synthpop. The group described the song as "an updated version of their sound" and was fun to record and experiment with. "Missing You is more out-there than that rest of [Headlines!]."The single received mostly negative reception from critics, who criticised the decision to release "Missing You" as a single, for using auto-tuned vocals and the song's production, which lacked energy. An accompanying music video features scenes of the group dancing on a beach in Málaga, Spain. It charted in Ireland at number six but in the UK it fared better, reaching number three, beaten by Flo Rida's "Club Can't Handle Me" featuring David Guetta and Eminem's "Love the Way You Lie" featuring Rihanna. It was the second time that the group have lost out to Flo Rida in chart battle although it is their fourth top-ten hit in Ireland and seventh in the UK. The official remix features British grime artist, rapper and songwriter Professor Green. more »
