Background and release

"Back to You" was King's debut solo single, following the hiatus of girl group The Saturdays. The song was rumoured to be about King's "former on/off relationship" with model David Gandy.[4] The music video was filmed by director Lisa Gunning.[4]

"Back to You" debuted and peaked at number 90 on the UK Singles Chart,[5] and at number 38 on the sales-only chart.[6] It has sold over 15,000 copies in the UK to date. It reached the top 20 of the iTunes chart upon release,[7] and in March 2021, returned to the iTunes top 40 following a campaign on the internet music forum BuzzJack for the site's 15th anniversary.[8]
