Interesting facts and trivia about Make Me Better. By Songfacts®.

This tender love song was inspired by Blunt's' wife and baby son. It was co-written with Ed Sheeran and Sheeran's regular collaborator Johnny McDaid from Snow Patrol.

Asked by Artist Direct what Sheeran brings that is unique to the songwriting process, Blunt replied: "He said, he really loved my first album because it was incredibly direct, its lyrics. And that he felt it would be good to try and do that again, because I suppose with the kind of intrusion of that first album, intrusion into my private life... things like that, I kind of closed up a little bit, with the kind of visceral attacks I had on myself after that first album, which, yeah I kind of closed up and wrote more ambiguous lyrics. He said, 'Come on that's your job. You're a songwriter, so let's write the lyrics as open as possible,' in a way that makes me quite uncomfortable, and so the song we wrote was a song called, 'Make Me Better'. I find it so open and so direct, it definitely makes me uncomfortable."

Ed Sheeran also produced the track. It represented the first time that he'd taken on solo producer duties for another artist.
