Singles
"Rita Wrote a Letter" was released on 15 August 2025 as the album's lead single as is the sequel to Kelly's 1996 song, "How to Make Gravy".[1] Kelly said "I've been mulling over the idea of a sequel to 'How to Make Gravy' from Rita's point of view for quite some time. About five years ago I wrote down the words, 'Rita wrote a letter' and thought, 'There’s my title'."[3]
