Morris gigged in Blackpool and around the North-West England during her college studies. She attracted the attention of BBC Radio Lancashire presenter Sean McGinty, who put her forward to perform on the BBC Introducing stage at the Reading and Leeds Festivals in August 2011.[1][10][11][12] She was signed to Universal Music Publishing Group the same month and to Atlantic Records in September 2011.[6] Morris had received attention from other labels but chose Atlantic because they "would take it slow" and "didn't blow any smoke up my arse".
During this period she was mentored by fellow Blackpool singer-songwriter Karima Francis, who helped develop her songwriting skills.[14] She was also in a two-year relationship with Francis, which she said inspired the songs on her debut album "about going through that, exploring that sexuality and those feelings for the first time. Then coming out the other side of that as well, so that's the album".
Morris released her debut single in March 2012, "Don't Go", following its use in the final episode of the sixth series of the television drama series Skins. She recorded an EP, For You, which she sold exclusively at her live performances in mid 2012, and in November released a second EP, Grow. Another EP, From Above, followed in 2013. Alongside her solo gigs during 2012 and 2013, Morris was a support act for artists including Bombay Bicycle Club, Lianne La Havas, Noah and the Whale, and Tom Odell.[18][19] She contributed guest vocals to three tracks on Bombay Bicycle Club's 2014 album So Long, See You Tomorrow, including the single "Luna". Also in 2014, Morris co-wrote and featured on the Clean Bandit song "Up Again" (from their debut album New Eyes). Rae Morris was recently the MarkMeets featured artist of the month December 2014 Rae also opened for George Ezra on his European tour, as well as embarking on her own headlining UK tour.
During 2014, Morris released the singles "Do You Even Know?", "Cold" (featuring Fryars), and "Closer"—each with accompanying EPs—to promote her debut album, Unguarded, which she recorded primarily in Los Angeles with producer Ariel Rechtshaid. Morris was longlisted in the BBC Sound of 2015 poll, and Unguarded was released in January 2015 alongside the single "Under the Shadows", with another headlining tour following in February. Unguarded, which also features production from Jim Eliot and Fryars, debuted at number nine on the UK Albums Chart.
Later in 2015, Morris appeared in a television advertisement for fashion retailer Boohoo that featured the album's fifth single, "Love Again". She featured on Sivu's single "The Nile" and performed at festivals including Bestival, Glastonbury, Lytham Festival, T in the Park, and Truck Festival. The sixth single from Unguarded, "Don't Go", was released in association with breast cancer awareness charity Coppafeel!.
Morris began work on the follow up to Unguarded in late 2015. Working prominently with Fryars, Morris opted for a more electronic-oriented sound for her second album. Between July 2017 and October 2018, Morris released seven singles to promote the album - "Reborn", "Do It", "Atletico (The Only One)", "Push Me to My Limit", "Lower the Tone", "Someone Out There" and "Dancing With Character" - as well as various remixes. The album, titled Someone Out There, was released on 2 February 2018.
In July 2018, the song "Reborn" from Someone Out There was featured in the BBC's closing montage from the 2018 FIFA World Cup.
In October 2018, Morris said she was "going away for a few months to write the next era."
Love Again
Rae Morris Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
There's fire where my heart should be
My confident core is weak
My mouth doesn't dare to speak
'Cause I've been looking too hard for something,
Looking too hard for something
Giving it all for nothing,
Trying too hard to love again
Ooh ooh, eh eh
Looking for, looking for love again
Ooh ooh, eh eh
Looking for, looking for love again
In light of reality,
The truth it's too good to be
Looking too hard for something,
Looking too hard for something
Giving it all for nothing,
Trying too hard to love again
Ooh ooh, eh eh
Looking for, looking for love again
Ooh ooh, eh eh
Looking for, looking for love again
Ooh ooh, eh eh
Looking for, looking for love again
Ooh ooh, eh eh
Looking for, looking for love again
Maybe if I stop lookin'
Take back all that I've put in
Elevate and build you will
Maybe if I, maybe if I stop
Ooh ooh, eh eh
Looking for, looking for love again
Ooh ooh, eh eh
Looking for, looking for love again
Ooh ooh, eh eh (I don't know where to start at)
Looking for, looking for love again
Ooh ooh, eh eh (I don't know where to start at)
Looking for, looking for love again
Ooh ooh, eh eh (I don't know where to start at)
Looking for, looking for love again
Ooh ooh, eh eh (I don't know where to start at)
Looking for, looking for love again
Ooh ooh, eh eh (I don't know where to start at)
Looking for, looking for love again
Ooh ooh, eh eh (I don't know where to start at)
Looking for, looking for love again
The lyrics of Rae Morris’ song “Love Again” describe the struggles she faces as she tries to regain her ability to love after being hurt. Morris laments that she has become afraid of herself and that her heart has been replaced by fire. She feels weak and unable to speak because she has been searching too hard for love, only to end up giving everything for nothing. The line, “In light of reality, the truth it’s too good to be” highlights the fact that Morris has been trying too hard to find love, making it difficult for her to recognize it when it’s right in front of her.
The chorus repeats the idea of Morris looking for love again, with a hint of desperation as she realizes that she doesn’t know where to start. In the second verse, Morris begins to see that her search for love has been counterproductive, and that she may need to stop looking so hard to find it. She hopes that by stopping her search and taking a step back, she can gain perspective and begin to love again.
Overall, “Love Again” is a vulnerable and emotional song about finding the courage to love again after being hurt. Morris’s lyrics capture the fear and uncertainty that often come with opening oneself up to love.

These days I'm afraid of me
Lately, I am intimidated by myself
There's fire where my heart should be
I feel passionate, but it's difficult to channel my emotions
My confident core is weak
Although I appear secure, I doubt myself heavily
My mouth doesn't dare to speak
I'm hesitant to express myself through speech
'Cause I've been looking too hard for something,
I've been searching excessively for something
Giving it all for nothing,
I've invested my all, but it's been in vain
Trying too hard to love again
I'm struggling greatly to rediscover love
Maybe if I stop lookin',
Perhaps if I cease searching
Take back all that I've put in
Reclaim all of the energy I've exhausted in the process
Elevate and build you will
I can improve myself and move on
Ooh ooh, eh eh
Looking for, looking for love again
Continuously searching for love
In light of reality,
The truth it's too good to be
Looking too hard for something,
Looking too hard for something
Giving it all for nothing,
Trying too hard to love again
Realizing the reality that I'm trying too hard to find something that seems too good to exist, but it's been futile efforts
Ooh ooh, eh eh
Looking for, looking for love again
Still looking for love
Ooh ooh, eh eh (I don't know where to start at)
Looking for, looking for love again
I'm still searching, but I'm unsure where to begin
