Songfacts®:

• "Back To Me" opens with an unexpectedly gentle piano motif, but within seconds it bursts into full Rudimental mode: live drums that sound like they've been mic'd at a festival, and a bassline that vibrates somewhere near your ribcage.
• The track's mood is triumphant, but it's forged from hardship as Jess Glynne sings about reclaiming her identity after a period of emotional disrepair. It's a classic Glynne theme - healing through hurt - but here it's presented with Rudimental's trademark flair: part club anthem, part group therapy session in song form.
  
  "There's so much darkness, but from it there was such a light," Glynne said of the song.
• "Back to Me" is the third team-up between Rudimental and Glynne, following 2018's global smash "These Days" (with Macklemore and Dan Caplen) and 2019's "Dark Clouds" from Rudimental's Toast to Our Differences. All three share a spirit of catharsis, but "Back To Me" is the most personal of the lot, with Glynne centering the song around emotional resilience and inner growth.
• Rudimental and Glynne co-wrote the song with:
  
  Chelcee Grimes, whose extensive songwriting catalog includes significant contributions to songs by Dua Lipa (e.g., "Kiss and Make Up," "Love Again"). She has also written for many other high-profile artists, including Kylie Minogue and Kesha.
  
  Jin Jin (Janée Bennett) has been a key collaborator for Jess Glynne, co-writing many of her hits, including "Hold My Hand" and numerous tracks on her albums. She is also credited on major dance-pop hits like "You Don't Know Me" by Jax Jones featuring Raye, and "BED" by Joel Corry, Raye & David Guetta.
  
  Jacob Manson is one half of the deep house duo Blonde, who had success with tracks like "I Loved You" and "All Cried Out." Beyond Blonde, he has a significant list of songwriting and production credits for various artists within the dance-pop and pop genres, including work with Rudimental (on "Lay It All On Me" featuring Ed Sheeran), Craig David, Anne-Marie, and Elderbrook.
  
  Billen Ted, the producer-songwriters responsible for the sea shanty pop hit "Soon May The Wellerman Come," and Anne-Marie's "Psycho."
• Rudimental and Billen Ted handled production duties. Their previous team-ups include the Rudimental singles "Dancing Is Healing" and "Bring Me Joy."
