Background [edit]
The song, which describes a partner's delivery to a relationship despite having moments of difficulty, was written by Rae immediately after an argument with her late husband Jason Rae in Jan 2008.[2] She stated in an interview with The Observer 'due south Sean O'Hagan that "It was written literally just after me and Jason had this massive disagreement, a big statement, a bad ane. Almost as he was leaving the room, I simply sabbatum downwards and wrote it. Information technology's just about how I felt about him at that time. Even right in the eye of the worst times, I remember thinking that I would choose this exact life again, that I would do it all again. Information technology was me maxim, I'grand not wishing myself out of this situation. I'one thousand 100 pct committed to this person. I don't have any regrets about this human relationship even though there are all these difficult times."[2]
Bailey Rae told The Lord's day: "At that place'southward a line in there that love is bigger than your pride and that's how I felt well-nigh him. No one was more correct for me than him. No one."[iii]
Meanwhile, in terms of musically choosing 'I'd Practice It All Once more' as her first single in three years, she told noted UK soul writer Pete Lewis of Dejection & Soul: "I felt it was a skillful way to re-introduce myself to people. Considering it but starts with me playing my guitar and singing, but so all the dissimilar layers come in. And I really like the fact that it grows and swells to just ane chorus, and so it retreats again. You know, it follows an unusual vocal form, and I felt information technology was an honest and raw vocal about love when things are hard."[four]
Music video [edit]
The music video was directed by Jamie Thraves. Corinne Bailey Rae had been familiar with Thraves previous music videos, calling them "very existent looking, cinematic and quite night", according to Thraves. She asked for the same concept for her own music video.
Jamie Thraves shot the video in E Dulwich, a southern district of London, England.[5] It begins with Rae awaking somberly in bed while singing the first few lines of the vocal. She is then shown in front end of a mirror dabbing lightly at her cheek with a make-up castor before exiting for a walk outside. The video then cuts to Rae buying groceries, walking through a dimly lit subway, and then up a flying of stairs crowded with people who Rae has to weed through to get to her destination. The sequence of events repeats until the climax of the song where Rae breaks through the crowd of people and instead of awaking once more in her bed. She tosses off her jacket and sings in forepart of moving traffic. Rae then runs into an aisle where she stops to catch her breath. After this scene, the cycle of awaking in bed, fixing her make-upwardly, buying groceries then on, continues for the rest of the video.
Director Jamie Thraves said of the video's concept, "When I offset heard the song I instantly saw her doing everyday things, shopping in a supermarket, walking through a park etc but always singing in an intimate fashion." He continues to say "We agreed that the song had a sad beginning, a hopeful heart and a sad ending, and then that's what we aimed for with the visuals. She saw herself running at some signal, so that inspired the running down the alleyway and gave me the idea of her walking in front of traffic. We both saw that moment as a great release in the video."

Rae performed her vocal live at the Dutch TV bear witness X De Leeuw on March 13.[6]
