May 24, 20231 yr Quite like this. The chorus is basically ‘Who Wants to Live Forever’ by Queen with different lyrics though. I think that is intentional? The Brian May inclusion is a giveaway and it was written with Tom Howe for Ted Lasso and there were lots of Queen tidbits in the episode. Otherwise he or his regular guitarist would perform it.

May 24, 20231 yr I really like this song, i wonder are these songs going to be on a new album or is he releasing his debut.
May 25, 20231 yr Crazy to see a sales #1 only hitting the lower reaches of the top 40 all in. I really think they should air the sales chart on one of the radio stations. Why not on radio 2? Melanie C’s Anymore was a sales #1 and didn’t even chart in the top 200.
May 25, 20231 yr Melanie C’s Anymore was a sales #1 and didn’t even chart in the top 200. Anymore was #1 in physical sales - we're talking about the downloads + physical sales chart.
May 25, 20231 yr I really like this song, i wonder are these songs going to be on a new album or is he releasing his debut. Fought & Lost is a standalone single for Ted Lasso. Jason Sudeikis attended the Taylor Hawkins Tribute Concert and asked Sam to collaborate on a song with the concept to foreshadow the season finale. It's a tribute to Freddie Mercury as in the storyline he is revealed as a former owner of the football club. :cry:
May 26, 20231 yr Bejba, its kinda krejza this has 114,735 shazams since the episode aired on Tuesday. :o https://www.shazam.com/gb/track/666507446/f...-feat-brian-may It should be on NMF but it isn't <_< Edited May 26, 20231 yr by Chloe00x
May 31, 20231 yr I’m literally obsessed with ‘Fought & Lost’ now what a…. masterpiece! :cheer: All of them are surprised how much fans noticed it and resonated with the lyrics since it aired. Up to Number 1 on Shazam in UK, USA and Canada and Number 10 on Global Shazam which is great because it's their focus song for season 3 :cheer: That's all from the 2 minutes it was in the background really as it wasn't promoted on NMF! :P
July 15, 20231 yr Author Sam's Fought and Lost is nominated for an Emmy award in the category: Outstanding Original Music And Lyrics. https://www.emmys.com/awards/nominees-winne...usic-and-lyrics
July 19, 20231 yr Fought and Lost is really good but im still loving mountain, its a pitty his singles dont do better than they do.
August 31, 20231 yr The Sun are reporting that he's parted ways with Parlophone and he now has no team behind him :(
August 31, 20231 yr Wasn’t he in the studio with Aitch like… yesterday? That could be something to be released under Aitch’s label.
August 31, 20231 yr Author It was reportedly a 1 album deal and after that they had some creative differences and decided to part ways. I don’t think it’s a bad thing, no matter the reason tbh. He’s a free spirited kinda person and he should stay true to himself instead of pivoting into some weird label mainstream pop sound when he’s a metal head at heart. Going by his latest social media activity he seems happy enough doing whatever he’s doing. Edited August 31, 20231 yr by Megan_x
September 2, 20231 yr Sam is talented, but I think Parlophone fumbled his career after Eurovision. His EP was good but his singles were messy and his album, while number 1, was rushed. The David Guetta/Sigala collab was a missed opportunity. WMG had a major restructure which resulted in the unceremonious firing of the Parlophone team behind his success. WMG's new focus on chasing TikTok trends would unlikely to interest him but either way, Sam is resilient and will bounce back.
September 3, 20231 yr His album wasn’t bad to be fair. I hope it was the kind of songs he wanted to put out though as I would hate some radical sound change for upcoming music!
September 3, 20231 yr His album has only gone Silver. I suspect Parlophone are quite disappointed with the commercial results of his campaign. They must have expected him to blow up internationally as well.
