‘No Reason To Stay’ is simply about getting out of a situation because you literally can’t find one reason to stay. Maybe you’re in a relationship with someone you care about whether that be a lover, family member, friend, even a work colleague, and you find yourself constantly being the one who is always giving yet always feeling empty. If you ask yourself, “why am I fighting for this to work?” and you can’t find the reason… that is the reason to go.
On the track, Guy says “I’ve always loved that saying,“no reason to stay is a reason to go.” If you’re giving and giving and can’t find the ‘why’ for staying, whoever it’s with, then it’s time to go. Usually, a phrase like that is hard to fit into a song, but we managed to do it! I wrote this in LA and while I was there, I got some incredible musicians and singers into the studio and got to work. I wanted to create something that took me back to my soul/gospel roots – I’m really proud of how this track ended up.”
Guy is set to perform ‘No Reason To Stay’ on The Voice this Sunday night. Tune in for this very special performance!
