Becoming a father has completely changed James Arthur’s perspective. Since welcoming daughter Emily with Jessica Grist in November 2022, the “Train Wreck” singer shared in an interview with Best Magazine (per Showbiz) that parenthood has made him feel very centered and calm.
Reflecting on the joys of fatherhood, he talked about his little girl, saying, “Emily is amazing. No words can describe how I feel about him. He has been so good to me, mentally, I think. He has been my anchor.”

The 34-year-old singer admitted that he pursued success with a solitary and self-focused mindset in the past, with a “chip” on his shoulder fueled by his past challenges.
However, when his daughter Emily enters his life, everything changes. “When Emily was born, a feeling of calm immediately came over me and I thought, I’m not as important as this little baby that I now have to be a father to. I feel very grounded. She is the most beautiful thing you can imagine,” he explained.

Arthur, who rose to fame by winning “The X Factor” in 2013, shared a deeper insight, revealing that despite his previous relentless pursuit of success, he has now come to understand the true meaning of life.
He stated, “I feel like I just grew up overnight. People often say I am emotionally intelligent, but I fail to understand what all this really means. I have an unhealthy obsession with just wanting to be known for my music. Now that I have Emily, my whole motivation has changed.”
He added: “Having Emily has made everything right in the universe again, I think. I’m so happy for Jess, she’s an amazing mum – she’s taken to it like a duck to water, which is lovely to see.”

Making a successful comeback with fresh music, Arthur recently released his latest single, “Blindside.” The music video for the new single was artfully directed by Tim Mattia.
In “Blindside,” the singer-songwriter offers a captivating driving chorus and an impressive vocal performance. Reflecting on the song, Arthur said, “Blindside is a song I’ve wanted to write for years, about falling in love with the right person at the wrong time. It’s an energetic song with sad lyrics and it fits perfectly with the new style I’m looking for.”
Tim Mattia, the creative mind behind the video, added his view: “Blindside is a raw and emotional track, and when James and I talked about how it was written, and the meaning behind the lyrics, I immediately knew we had to record some epic performances of it, continuing with the Americana feel of our previous video for ‘A Year Ago.’”
He continued, “We tied in a series of dramatic and emotional narrative scenes, showing the sudden loss of love in a relationship, and a scene where James is bleeding and bruised as the song progresses – the physical embodiment of his emotional pain.”
