Sam Ryder releases new song and gives interview to BBC
Sam reminisced about his Eurovision journey, calling it “incredibly bonkers”, and all it’s given him. He mentioned singing “Space Man” at the Queen’s Jubilee concert in June and the National Anthem at Silverstone (Formula 1) in July as highlights since Turin.
I was happy before, I have amazing family, an incredible partner, fantastic friends. Those are the real things in my life, and music has always been there, because I could always make music in my bedroom, or shed, or wherever I was. And just sharing it with more people now is something I’m incredibly grateful for. But also crucial that you don’t put your validation into being a musician that shares their music with more people, because that ultimately is a dangerous path to go down.

As the single was released today, he posted a video to his socials to thank his fans for all their support, while simultaneously showing just how tired he is from all the work of touring, shooting a music video, and making new music – all while remaining humble and grateful.
