It was released as a single for digital download and streaming by Ministry of Sound on 24 April 2020. An English-language deep and retro-sounding club, house and R&B song, it touches on the theme of secrets and someone who has something to hide. Upon release, "Secrets" received critical acclaim from music critics, many of whom applauded the music, production and Raye's vocal delivery. At the 2021 Brit Awards, the song received a nomination in the category for the Song of the Year. The song entered the top 10, among others, in Bulgaria, Croatia, Ireland, Poland, Scotland and the United Kingdom, and received multiple gold certifications in various countries as well as platinum in Australia, France, Poland and the UK. An accompanying music video premiered on 19 June 2020, depicting the journey of masked motorcyclist, who is drawn to a mysterious location before being chased down by an unknown pursuer.
