Interesting facts and trivia about I Know You (feat. Bastille) - Vigiland Remix. By Songfacts®.

Craig David first met Bastille frontman and songwriter Dan Smith when they were both appearing on BBC Radio 1's breakfast show. He recalled to Artist Direct: "He showed a lot of love and said he was a big fan of my music and my albums from Born to Do It all the way through. And I was like, 'Oh man, I love Bastille,' and then we ended up in the studio and we wrote a song called, 'I Know You', which for me is a very special song, even with both of our vocals on it, which I love the textures of our vocals, but even if someone else had written that song, I would be like, 'Oh, I wish I'd written that song, and I don't say that very often."

Craig David told The Independent that he is proud of this R&B banger: "It's weird, when you've written a certain number of songs, you know when a song has something. I'm so glad we actually did it, because we were talking about it for so long. But to also have a song that in its own right, if someone else was singing it and I heard it I'd be like 'I wish I'd written that.' I think every session I approach as something fun. When me and Dan came in together we were in sync, we were both open to doing something that leant a little bit out of our comfort zones. I think it'll surprise a lot of Bastille fans, and my fans as well maybe. There's something about this song. It feels like we delivered on something more than we could have delivered apart. These songs feel like they'll stand the test of time."

The song was released a couple of months after Bastille's stint as Craig David's "backing band" when he made a surprise appearance for their September 26, 2016 Apple Music Festival show. It received its debut live performance during BBC One's music show It Sounds Like Friday Night on November 24, 2017.
