Songfacts®:

• "Hi, My Name Is Insecure" is the title track and opening song of Sam Tompkins' debut album. The song taps into that universal ache for connection and validation, peeling back the layers of what it feels like to be one person alone, but a subtly different one around others.
  
  "'Hi, My Name Is Insecure' is all about owning up to your insecurities, accepting they make you who you are and being empowered by that fact," Tompkins told The Sun. "When I say it out loud, it means others can't poke holes in me with them. I am free."
• By opening Hi, My Name Is Insecure with this track, Tompkins establishes the album's focus on mental health, emotional vulnerability, and the human experience of feeling insecure. The song serves as an invitation for us to connect with Tompkins' experiences and potentially find comfort in shared feelings of insecurity.
• Tompkins wrote and produced the song himself. Musically, it's sparse with whisper-sung vocals and a lightly strummed guitar. The pared-back musical arrangement draws attention to the lyrics.
• Hi, My Name Is Insecure reached #8 on the UK albums chart, marking Tomkins' second consecutive Top 10 entry following his 2022 EP Who Do You Pray To, which peaked at #7.
