The album was released on 18 May 2018 through Republic Records.[2] BackgroundOn 7 March 2018, Bay announced that his second album was called Electric Light and would be released on 18 May 2018. In a press release, he said: "If I had to describe my first album visually it would probably be a flame – while this new album is about a real sonic and artistic evolution for me. The feeling of a 100 watt bulb expanding and brightening is what I envisioned. Electric Light came to my mind and I knew it was perfect."[3] Critical reception{{Album ratings| MC = 71/100[4] | rev1 = AllMusic | rev1Score = {{rating|4|5}}[5] | rev2 = The A.V.

There are hip-hop style spoken-word skits on the record and, actually, it sometimes sounds more like a lush, exploratory mixtape than a coherent album." He rated the album 3/5.[16] Q magazine was quoted as saying the album contains "an admirable desire for transformation."[15]Stereogum wrote "It’s a genuinely thrilling piece of work, one that converted me into a James Bay fan on impact."[17] Track listing{{Track listing| all_writing = | headline = Electric Light[18] | extra_column = Producer(s) | title1 = Intro | writer1 = {{hlist|James Bay}} | extra1 = Bay | length1 = 0:58 | title2 = Wasted on Each Other | writer2 = {{hlist|Bay|Jonathan Green}} | extra2 = {{hlist|Bay|Green|Paul Epworth{{ref|b|[b]}}}} | length2 = 3:58 | title3 = Pink Lemonade | writer3 = {{hlist|Bay|Green}} | extra3 = {{hlist|Bay|Green|Epworth{{ref|b|[b]}}}} | length3 = 4:14 | title4 = Wild Love | writer4 = {{hlist|Bay|Green}} | extra4 = {{hlist|Bay|Green|Epworth{{ref|b|[b]}}}} | length4 = 3:17 | title5 = Us | writer5 = {{hlist|Bay|Green}} | extra5 = {{hlist|Bay|Green|Epworth{{ref|b|[b]}}}} | length5 = 3:01 | title6 = In My Head | writer6 = {{hlist|Bay|Green}} | extra6 = {{hlist|Bay|Green|Epworth{{ref|b|[b]}}}} | length6 = 3:07 | title7 = Interlude | writer7 = Bay | extra7 = Bay | length7 = 1:01 | title8 = Just for Tonight | writer8 = {{hlist|Bay|Green}} | extra8 = {{hlist|Bay|Green|Epworth{{ref|b|[b]}}}} | length8 = 3:37 | title9 = Wanderlust | writer9 = {{hlist|Bay|Green}} | extra9 = {{hlist|Bay|Green{{ref|a|[a]}}|Epworth{{ref|a|[a]}}}} | length9 = 4:16 | title10 = I Found You | writer10 = {{hlist|Bay|James Napier}} | extra10 = {{hlist|Bay|Green{{ref|a|[a]}}|Epworth{{ref|a|[a]}}}} | length10 = 5:06 | title11 = Sugar Drunk High | writer11 = {{hlist|Bay|Green}} | extra11 = {{hlist|Bay|Green}} | length11 = 3:39 | title12 = Stand Up | writer12 = {{hlist|Bay|Green|Paul Epworth}} | extra12 = {{hlist|Bay|Green{{ref|a|[a]}}|Epworth{{ref|a|[a]}}}} | length12 = 4:59 | title13 = Fade Out | writer13 = {{hlist|Bay|Green}} | extra13 = {{hlist|Bay|Green|Epworth{{ref|b|[b]}}}} | length13 = 3:52 | title14 = Slide | length14 = 3:21 | writer14 = {{hlist|Bay|Green|Allen Ginsberg}} | extra14 = {{hlist|Bay|Green|Epworth{{ref|b|[b]}}}} | title15 = | length15 = | title16 = | length16 = | title17 = | length17 = | title18 = | length18 = | title19 = | length19 = | title20 = | length20 = | total_length = 48:26 }}{{Track listing | all_writing = | headline = Electric Light {{nobold|– Target exclusive edition (bonus tracks)[19]}} | extra_column = Producer(s) | title15 = Confirmation | writer15 = {{hlist|Bay|Green}} | extra15 = {{hlist|Bay|Green}} | length15 = 3:16 | title16 = Young Hearts in the Dark | writer16 = {{hlist|Bay|Green}} | extra16 = {{hlist|Bay|Green|Epworth{{ref|b|[b]}}}} | length16 = 3:17 | total_length = 54:59 }}{{Track listing | collapsed = yes | headline = Electric Light {{nobold|– Deluxe edition (bonus tracks)}} | title15 = Wild Love | note15 = Acoustic | length15 = 3:09 | title16 = Pink Lemonade | note16 = Acoustic | length16 = 4:23 | title17 = Us | note17 = Acoustic | length17 = 3:03 }}Notes
