Songfacts®:

  • After wishing to be remembered by her ex on "Hate Me," the title track of her debut EP, the tables are turned on Abbey Cone when she can't get a guy off her mind on this track.

    "You know that feeling when you thought you were over someone and then you see something that reminds you of them and suddenly you miss them?" she asked in a Songfacts track by track. "That's what 'Thought About You' is about. It's about reminiscing and also about how time can make you remember things differently than they actually were."
  • Cone wrote this with Nathan Spicer (her co-producer) and Nate Cyphert, an LA-based songwriter who co-write the Florida Georgia Line hit "H.O.L.Y.."
  • Cone credits her and Spicer's individual sonic influences for helping her bring her vision to life in the studio. "My co-producer, Nathan, and I have super different musical influences," she explained in a press release. "His being more Jackson Browne and Third Eye Blind, and mine being more Shania Twain and Lee Ann Womack. In the studio, all of that energy combined really comes out sounding exactly how it does in my head. To me, the feeling is most important and I'm so proud of how we captured that for this project."
