Benson Boone could be onto a hit again almost two years after In the Stars, with the much-teased Beautiful Things finally out now. It's already charting promisingly on UK Apple Music and iTunes!



It's a really epic track, very different to In the Stars!

I’d love for his one-hit wonder status to be removed this Friday

Wasn't really expecting this from him at all which might be why it's doing better than 'In The Stars' did even as it's quite a switch up. Good track which I can see growing even more on me as it goes on.

I quite like this, although it does sound quite similar to ‘Your Needs, My Needs’ by Noah Kahan.

Wouldn’t mind seeing this at #1 it’s a great song, and I’d rather this than lose control tbh

It is very interesting to see this becoming a big hit as I don't think it sounds like one at all - it's pretty decent, albeit the chorus being much stronger than the verses, but an unexpected direction for him to have gone in after the sound of his two previous hit songs.

I said this in my mini review in my top 100 poll thread but this sounds like the kind of song I wish Sam Ryder would have released to follow up 'SPACE MAN'.
