Background and composition
Capaldi revealed in a social media post that the song was "by far the most personal tune" he had ever written.[2] According to Idolator, the song "deals with the emotional aftermath of suicide", and was inspired by the suicide of Capaldi's aunt while Capaldi was a child.[3] "Before You Go" is played in the tempo of 112 BPM and key signature of E♭ major.
Critical reception
Clash Music's Robin Murray called the track "trademark Capaldi", further describing it as "a rousing piece of acoustic songwriting with a driving vocal".[4]
Music video
Released on 24 January 2020, and directed by Kyle Thrash, the video is of happy moments recalled by a group of friends as they pay tribute to a young woman (played by actress Sasha Lane), whose suicide has shocked them, with clips of Lewis Capaldi playing his guitar and singing appearing occasionally.[5]
The video has gained over 331 million views as of June 2023.
