I wrote this song to express how I felt to the woman I love as we were about to commit to a lifetime together. But, often, the best songs are able to express something in a way that is both personal and universal. I'm grateful to know that lovers around the world have connected with this song and made it their own."
Spotify fans simply can't get enough of the Legend of Love (and PEOPLE's 2019 "Sexiest Man Alive") - his new single "Conversations in the Dark" has already seen more than 10 million streams on Spotify since its release last month.
