It hasn't been properly announced as the next official single from The Heist, but it is about to crack the top 30 on the US Hot 100, is racing up iTunes there and is getting very good radio updates daily suggesting that another single release is inevitable.

 

And it's bloomin' beautiful.

It's an incredible song. I'm really glad it's taking of over there!

In all honesty, I was cynical about its success in America. I really didn't think radio would get on board. I hope it is released as the next single in the UK because it sounds far better than their previous singles.

This is amazing and obviously I love the message, I can see this overtaking Can't Hold Us in my affections as far as their singles go. They'd be mad not to release it WW tbh.

 

It's been #1 in Australia too, I think it was the second single between Thrift Shop and Can't Hold Us there - I'm not sure if it just took off despite not being a single though.

This holds such a powerful message, and the song is so good, so I would love to see it released! :wub:

This needs to be massive.

 

If it has success in America, then I see no reason why it wouldn't here. Especially given how successful Can't Hold Us has been anyway.

This is going to be huge over here. I think it could be either a multi week number 1, or just a massive consistent seller (something like 'Jar Of Hearts' or something). The message behind it is great! Looking forward to seeing how it performs actually.

Okay, so I only just listened to this and it is stunning. The video is beautiful too, so much respect to a straight rapper singing about something like this. It absolutely needs to be massive and I see no reason why it shouldnt be, especially as it is now Top 10 on US iTunes too.

This is racing up the Itunes charts all over the world :wub:

These guys are unstoppable

I think that this would have the best chance of doing well if it was released in the autumn, it just has that vibe about it.

 

So so so so happy that this is probably getting an official release though, by far my favourite song from him. :wub:

Wow a nice change in song for him and it works too. Stunning plus the message is very well illustrated too imo.

Just given 'The Heist' a full listen through and it's BRILLIANT. 'Gold' and 'Castle' are my early "non single" favourites so far. 'Same Love' is still the clear standout from them though. :wub:

Are we aware (I wasn't until Rich pointed it out to me) that Mary Lambert has done a "Part 2"? It's lovely enough but not as good as the original.

Found it rather boring tbh :(

They performed this with Tegan & Sara :wub:

 

This isn't taking off in the UK. :( It's been in and out of the top 200 for weeks now.

Has it actually been serviced to radio yet though? I'm sure it'll take off when they start to play it

 

This is going nowhere isn't it?

I think you really need to calm down. It hasn't even been serviced to radio yet...
