Future Hit: Lewis Capaldi’s “Someone You Loved” Is Going To Be Big


The Drop: MØ & Lewis Capaldi

Your guide to New Music Friday featuring gems from MØ and Lewis Capaldi.

One of the best things about 2018 was the revival of sad singer/songwriters. Dean Lewis cracked America with “Be Alright,” while Tom Walker landed a hit just about everywhere else with “Leave A Light On.” Happily, it looks like the trend is going to continue in 2019. Alec Benjamin’s “Let Me Down Slowly” is starting to take off, while Lewis Capaldi is shaping up to be one of the year’s breakout stars courtesy of “Someone You Loved.” The 22-year-old Scot’s ballad just cracked the UK top 20 and has already racked up 40 million streams on Spotify.

What’s the appeal? First of all, there’s that voice. Lewis has a golden set of pipes and they imbue his music with a staggering amount of grit and soul. And he channels all of into “Someone You Loved,” a relatable anthem about the sudden onset on loneliness that follows a breakup. “Now the day bleeds into nightfall and you’re not here to get me through it all,” our hero laments on the chorus. “I let my guard down and then you pulled the rug, I was getting kinda used to being someone you loved.” Awww.
