On 3 November 2014, Simply Red announced they would be reforming in Autumn 2015 for a 30th anniversary European tour, the "Big Love Tour 2015".
On 19 April 2015, on their official Facebook page, the band announced that they would be releasing a new studio album containing 12 new tracks.
Lead singer Mick Hucknall said of the album: "Once I began wondering how Simply Red were going to sound, I started writing songs. With ‘Stay’ I was running away from Simply Red. But now I'm comfortable with the notion of us as a blue-eyed soul group. I had to stop myself fighting that idea. Our sound is original too. I honestly don't know of another band that has pulled so many musical strands together". Hucknall has said he wanted to make an album like Stars with a consistent theme: "And the theme here is life from a family viewpoint. It’s an album that deals with birth, love, death, and all the stuff in between".
"Big Love" is a song written by David Bellamy, and recorded by American country music duo The Bellamy Brothers. It was released in January 1989 as the second single from the album Rebels Without a Clue. The song reached number 5 on the Billboard Hot Country Singles & Tracks chart.

Looking out for love
And the night's so still
I will build you a kingdom
In that house on the hill
Looking out for love
And the night's so still
I will build you a kingdom
In that house on the hill
Looking out for love
Big love
You said that you love me
And that you always will
Oh you begged me to keep you
In that house on the hill
Looking out for love
Big love
I wake up
Alone with it all
I wake up
But only to fall
Looking out for love
Big love
