The song was released as a digital download on 15 April 2017 in the United Kingdom by Columbia Records as the third single from his second studio album, Back from the Edge (2016).[1] The song became a moderate hit on a number of charts.

On 8 May 2017, Vevo released the music video "Can I Be Him" on YouTube. It shows James Arthur performing the song in a moving subway carriage.
