Another band member, Jay McGuiness, talked about the writers of their hit, or the ‘dream team' as The Wanted, like to call them, with Artist Direct: 'They played ‘Glad You Came' for us and it was a different sound for us. We had poppy rock and cool string vibes going. We liked the song, went in and did our version of the vocal, and we were surprised. We started doing it at gigs, and the fans went crazy, so we knew it had to be the next single.'
