“Purpose” by Jonas Blue (featuring Era Istrefi)
“Purpose” is a single by English DJ, record producer and songwriter Jonas Blue. The vocals of Kosovo-Albanian singer Era Istrefi are featured on this song. In this song, the narrator (Era) is making an appeal for her partner to open up and freely love her. However, the subject of the song (the singer’s love interest) is seemingly apprehensive in sharing his affection with the narrator.
In the course of the song, the singer also acknowledges that she may have done something to upset her lover and has thus caused the uneasiness that has become a thorn in her side. It is never explicitly revealed what wrong she did to her lover. Did she hurt him by loving him too much? Whatever wrong she may have done him, she apologizes for that and lets him know that it wasn’t on purpose.
