Plain White T’s shared the lyric video for ’You Plus Me’ – with its gentle, acoustic guitar strumming, lilting melodies, and talk-sung vocals that deliver relatable, journal-honest lyrics, the song has a delightfully retro vibe. It’s a simple, pretty, and resonant ode to finding and loving your person through good times and bad. Ultimately, this song could have a second life in a montage in a movie where a starstruck couple is trying to find their way back to one another.
“‘You Plus Me’ is a song about finding that person who is just as weird and nerdy as I am,” says singer Tom Higgenson. “It’s our flaws and our uniqueness that brings us together. There’s kind of an ‘us against the world’ mentality in this song and I love that! We purposely left the recording very raw and stripped down to let that spontaneity and misfit charm shine through.”
