Jessie Ware is back with “I could get used to this” her first solo single since the 2023s To! Feels good! and an early sign of where her next album is headed. The track draws from the dance-led reinvention that has defined the last few years of her career, while gently nudging the sound towards something more romantic, relaxed and unguarded indulgence.
Built on lively disco rhythms, elastic bass lines and Ware’s warm, commanding vocals, “I Could Get Used To This” leans into enjoyment without rushing it. The song glides rather than pushes forward, settling into a mood of comfort and intimacy that feels less like a hunt and more like finally getting to where you’re meant to be.
Jessie Ware co-wrote the song with Miranda Cooper, Sophia Brenan and Jon Shave, tapping into a distinctly British pop lineage that favors songwriting craft and emotional appeal over big, showy gestures. With Shave also handling co-production duties, the song lands somewhere between elegant and playful, polished without ever feeling overly manicured.
The single also hints at a broader shift in Ware’s next chapter, one she’s framed as an open invitation rather than a bold manifesto. If What is your pleasure? thrived in the sweat and shadows of underground dance floors, and To! Feels good! leaned into high-camp diva energy, this new phase opens into something more mythic. Ware envisions it as a garden of gods and goddesses, a world where romance, achievement and pleasure exist side by side, free of self-consciousness.
That sentiment carries over to the music video, which places Ware at the center of a stylized, mythic world populated by dancers, classical motifs and fashionable costumes. The visuals lean towards sensuality and theatricality without taking itself too seriously, reflecting the mood of the song rather than overpowering it. Fashion also plays a silent but conscious role, with looks underscoring Ware’s changing relationship with confidence, femininity and control.
After a series of collaborations and side projects, “I Could Get Used To This” stands out for how saturated it feels. Ware is not chasing a new invention or trying to surpass his previous work. Instead, she sharpens the instincts that have come to define her recent output, creating dance music that treats pleasure as something that is felt as much as performed. If this single sets the direction, her next album seems poised to build on her dancer’s trilogy, letting its boundaries soften rather than insisting on a clean break.
