"Stop Living the Lie" was written by the singer-songwriter David Sneddon, and was his debut release single in January 2003. The single was released on 13 January 2003 and, during its first week, it charted at number one in the UK Singles Chart, as well as reaching number five in Ireland. The song was from his UK Albums Chart No. 5 hit, Seven Years – Ten Weeks. Sneddon performed the song on the BBC's Fame Academy show, which he went on to win in December 2002.
Both the CD and cassette editions featured the radio edit of the song, a cover of Wet Wet Wet's "Goodnight Girl", and an acoustic version of Elton John's "Don't Let the Sun Go Down on Me", a song he performed live during the Fame Academy final shows.
