Sam Fender released his new album, People Watching, on February 21, 2025 via Polydor Records. The singer talked about the songwriting process for the album in an exclusive interview with Variety on February February 25, 2025:

"Some of the songs were very much lyrics first, like “TV Dinner” was sort of a poem really. You could see the rhythm in the writing, but I had no melody for it or chord structure until I sat down at a piano and figured it out. Then on the other hand, you’ve got “Arm’s Length,” which was completely music-driven."

The singer continued later:

"...You have songs like that that just come out of nowhere, and there’s others that you labor over. “People Watching” took a while, like I had half of that song for months and months, and then once I got to America [on tour] I figured out what I was going to do for the chorus."

He added:

"But I tried so many different choruses and melody ideas until I landed on the one that we stuck with, which gave it that sort of stadium euphoria that it needed."

Sam Fender worked with Adam Granduciel, lead singer and songwriter for The War On Drugs band, on the new album. Granduciel, along with Fender and Markus Dravs, produced the album.
