Background

edit

"2002" is a love ballad about a childhood romance of Anne-Marie's that took place in the titular year.[2] She wrote the song with Ed Sheeran, Benny Blanco, Julia Michaels and Steve Mac.[5] She was not initially planning to release "2002" as a single, but finally caved in after constant pestering from Sheeran on Instagram to bring it out.[6]

The beginning of the song's chorus, "Oops, I got 99 problems singing 'bye, bye, bye' / Hold up, if you wanna go and take a ride with me / Better hit me, baby, one more time", references six songs released between 1998 and 2004: "...Baby One More Time", "Oops!... I Did It Again", "99 Problems", "Bye Bye Bye", "The Next Episode" and "Ride wit Me".[7] In an interview with Polish music magazine luvPOP, Anne-Marie explained the song: "It is all about that year, when I was that age just listening to that music that I loved at that time. You know, Christina Aguilera, Missy Elliott. All of these songs...Yeah, it just takes me back to that time."[8] In a March 2017 interview, she mentioned Alanis Morissette as a big influence on her while growing up.[9]

Composition

edit

"2002" is originally in the key of E major[10] with a tempo of 96 beats per minute and a time signature of 4
4. The chord progression E–B–C♯m–G♯m–A–B–E is used in the verses; the progression C♯m–A–E–B–A–B in the pre-choruses and bridge, A–E–B–C♯m in the choruses, and E–B–C♯m–A (the I–V–vi–IV progression) after the last chorus.[11]

Music video

edit

The official music video was directed by Hannah Lux Davis, who also directed the video for Anne-Marie's previous single "Friends".[12] It was filmed in London[13] and uploaded to YouTube on 8 May 2018.[14] It features Anne-Marie recreating the videos of the songs referenced in the chorus;[5] as well as Cerys Hill as young Anne-Marie.

As of June 2024, the video has gained over 863 million views and 5 million likes.[15]
