Teddy Swims Releases 'Break Up in Reverse' Single, Music Video

The single reflects a breakup without regret and pairs with a reverse-narrative video directed by Lewis Cater.

  • On Friday, Teddy Swims released his second song of 2026 and a music video directed by Lewis Cater. The video features Swims singing as footage of a house being destroyed plays in reverse.
  • Inspired by an old Nas song called "Rewind," the lyrics express Swims wanting to "break up in reverse" with an ex he still loves. Swims wrote about his relationship to capture the feeling of finding love at the start.
  • Released via Warner Records, the track is expected to appear on Swims' upcoming third studio album alongside "Gone Gone Gone" with David Guetta and Tones. The collaborations underscore the project's scope.
  • To promote the new music, Swims will launch the North American Ugly Tour on Sept 22 in Kansas City, continuing through the fall and concluding in Los Angeles on Nov 18. The tour spans two months.
  • Swims noted the song reflects his personal experience, as his relationship recently ended. The singer previously performed the track at the American Music Awards earlier this year, previewing the heartfelt anthem.
