James Carter, the rapidly ascending UK artist enters 2023 with Can’t Forget You. An intriguing and unexpected collaboration with Ofenbach and James Blunt, which sees the three artists conjure a catchy vocal house banger ready for summer, Can’t Forget You is out now.
Fresh off the back of the colossal hit Bad Memories with Meduza which has tipped over 350m streams to date and was certified Gold and Platinum across 6 countries and counting, James Carter’s new single Can’t Forget You features the vocals of the multi-platinum and BRIT award-winning singer-songwriter James Blunt.
Having been a fan of both Ofenbach and James Blunt for years, it’s been such a privilege to collaborate together – not to mention how lovely the guys are to work with. With an edge of darkness in the lyrics, combined with an uplifting production, it feels like the perfect cross-over record to combine our musical worlds. I hope everyone is as surprised as I was for such a collaboration to unfold ! – James Carter
James Blunt
James Blunt has previously dipped his toe into dance music on OK with Robin Schulz which amassed over 400m streams. One of the most recognisable names and voices in UK music who has released an ever-growing catalogue of hits including You’re Beautiful, Bonfire Heart, 1973 and many more, James’ latest 2021 album, The Stars Beneath My Feet, marked the next chapter in his incredible two decade-spanning career, with the LP clocking up 22m global album sales.
I’m a huge fan of both Ofenbach and James Carter, so am thrilled to be on this record. – James Blunt

Ella Henderson, Ofenbach return today hot off the heels of their hit debut album I, which was released in November of last year. Earlier this year, Ofenbach released their first single of 2023 with rising Swedish pop star SVEA. Titled Body Talk, the track continues to catch fire with 50K creations on TikTok and 55M views. Also coming off the back of one of their most career-defining years to-date on the touring circuit, 2023 will see Ofenbach take to the stage at major festivals including Lollapalooza, Tomorrowland and Parookaville.
We’ve had the chance to work on this record with two talented Jameses. One is a great producer who has been delivering of hit records in such a short period of time. And the second one is a legend we’ve been following for years. We’re super excited about the release and about the track in general. – Ofenbach
