I Never Learn is released on 5 May 2014, and speaking of the album, the singer revealed that the album was a collection of powerballads inspired by a turbulent relationship break-up.
"Every song on the album is a power ballad. Like one of those old radio stations. This is a slow dance; a slow burner," she says in a statement about the album. "I wrote it in Sweden when I was packing up my shit, and I’d just gotten out of a relationship and it was a horrible time. I just had the hurt, shame, sadness, guilt, longing. In the verse, I’m referring to myself pleading guilty but I’m referring to all of us."
