British-born country singer-songwriter Phil Gregory returns with his latest single, “Number On My Mind.”
Following the release of his well-received EP Botley Drive, this new track brings fresh insights into Gregory’s ongoing exploration of love, lust, and loss.
A Song of Passionate Lust
“Number On My Mind” dives into the heated passion of a couple swept up in lust rather than love. Gregory explains,
“It’s about a couple who can’t get enough of each other. I imagine them growing old together, but for now, they’re lost in that exhilarating phase of lust.”
Reflecting Gregory’s romantic style, the song balances the intensity of fleeting passion with hints of lasting connection, all set to his signature British-country sound.
Building on the Success of Botley Drive
This release follows the success of Botley Drive, a nostalgic EP inspired by Gregory’s childhood home in Portsmouth, UK, which has received widespread radio play. While Botley Drive celebrates the carefree moments of youth, Gregory’s latest single adds a modern twist, capturing the emotional currents of lust and love.

His creative partnership with his nephew Billy Gregory of the UK band Crystal Tides pushes the boundaries of country music, blending timeless themes with contemporary flair.
