"Bigger Than Me" is a song by English singer-songwriter Louis Tomlinson released on 1 September 2022. It was released as the lead single from his second studio album Faith in the Future.[2]
It was my first moment of excitement making this record, and where it felt we were on to something which honors the live show. I've always strived to be a very normal, humble person in this life, but there's a line to that and a responsibility that comes from being in this position. I realized from doing those live shows what it means to my fans and how everything I do is bigger than me.
The song was written by Tomlinson, Rob Harvey, and Red Triangle, while production was handled by Mike Crossey.[4] The song is about Tomlinson questioning what really he wants to become and how we change while growing up, as life brings new challenges.[5][6]
The music video for "Bigger Than Me" was released on 2 September 2022. Billboard magazine describes the video which showcases "Tomlinson walking through stunning, lush outdoor landscapes lit by the setting sun and collecting stray pieces of wood along his way. When he eventually reaches a bonfire — the sun fully down — he tosses the wood into the flames and watches them burn."[11]
