Background
"The Day That I Die" is the fourth and final track on Capaldi's Survive EP, and is the fourth song released since his comeback.[2] Talking about the song on Instagram, Capaldi states that it's about "the lowest I’ve felt in my life" and that "it feels a bit weird putting it out there for people to hear but I’m honestly the proudest I’ve ever been about a song with this one."[1][3]
Critical reception
Shiga Miyato writing for Stanisland Magazine states, "Capaldi’s music often resonates with people who share the same experiences, and this time is no exception." Miyato then describes the song as "a brooding, melancholic atmosphere".[4] Jo Forrest of TotalNtertainment says, "Raw, cathartic, and unflinchingly honest, ‘The Day That I Die’ stands tall among Capaldi’s catalogue of emotional anthems, once again showcasing his extraordinary gift for finding truth and beauty in life’s most painful moments."[5]
