In 2014, Union J left RCA and signed with Epic Records. "Tonight (We Live Forever)", the lead single from their second album, was released on 17 August 2014. This was followed up by "You Got It All", written by Magic!'s Nasri, released in November 2014. Although it was the most purchased single of the week, audio streaming of Ed Sheeran's "Thinking Out Loud" prevented it from reaching the number one spot. Their second album, You Got It All – The Album, reached number 28 on the UK Albums Chart.
