Background


On 9 October 2017, Terry announced the song's release date on social media. Describing the song as being about "the darker side of love", he said: "We've all been in that position when we know a relationship is toxic and not good for us, but sometimes we ignore it and refuse to let go. I wrote this song when I was going through exactly that. The lyrics tell a tale of heartbreak, but the melody isn't sad or depressing – because I've come out the other side and I'm happy now."[1][2] In an interview with Official Charts Company, Terry revealed that he wrote the song in June 2017 with the songwriting and music production team The Family in Sweden. He said of the song: "It's about knowing you love someone more than they love you. Even though they're f**king up and not being a great partner, you're sticking with them and basically being a bit of a loser." They weighed up a total of seven songs for the lead single, and decided that "Sucker for You" will not be the closing track on the album.[3]


Critical reception


Rob Casey of Official Charts Company regarded it as "a proper radio-friendly pop song that wouldn't sound out of place on a Charlie Puth or Nick Jonas record".[3]


Music video


An official music video to accompany the release of "Sucker for You" was first released onto YouTube on 27 October 2017, at a total length of three minutes and forty-eight seconds.[4]
