Written last summer with one of his best friends, “Needing Me Now” was born in a humble, intimate setting—just Stokes, his guitar, a microphone, and his bedroom. The track reflects on a difficult time in Stokes’ love life, where he felt like he wasn’t good enough and the one he loved no longer needed him. As he spent time with this person, sharing his secrets, dreams, insecurities, and open heart, the realization that sometimes love fades left him struggling to come to terms with the situation.

The song delves into the complexities of relationships and the roller coaster emotions that come with love and loss. Stokes explores the painful truth that people sometimes come into our lives, change our world, and then leave without warning. Despite the pain, “Needing Me Now” is also about the strength found in the journey of self-reflection and accepting the uncertainty of love.

Fans of Stokes can expect more from the emerging artist as he continues to create deeply personal music that speaks to the heart. With a string of successful singles already under his belt, including his previous hits, Blake Stokes is poised to make 2025 his breakout year.

“Needing Me Now” is available for streaming on all major platforms. Follow Blake Stokes on social media for updates on upcoming music releases and tour dates.
