Content
In a press release, Blue explained: ""Hear Me Say" is about a relationship that seemed perfect but the couple drifted apart somewhere along the way. They will always love each other, and will cherish the memories they created, but it was just not meant to be. It’s about having a voice, and people hearing your voice. It’s about expressing your feelings and not holding back what you want to say."[3]
Critical reception
The website Popjuice commented that the song "is sure to be played at parties everywhere as lockdowns slowly begin to lift around the world."[5] Rachel Hammermueller of Earmilk described the track's "voice and quality feels right at home." And becomes "a choice tune to welcome the summer."[6]
Music video
The music video was released on 2 July 2021, and directed by Alex Nicholson. The video was filmed in Mexico.[7] It makes "a perfect summer day", including scenes of "lounging on a boat, running through the sand on a beach, exploring the tropics of a lagoon or hanging out in a beach house."[8]
