Calum Scott turns his attention to a George Michael fan favourite with his cover of One More Try. The track that was previously an Apple exclusive now arrives on all streaming platforms and sees Calum put a vocally impressive spin on the track which originally appeared on Michael’s debut album Faith in 1987.
Calum shares: “I wanted a challenge. His talent was undeniable. His writing and his attention to detail, his performances—his vocal is unmatched in terms of tone and quality and consistency. He could perform and write and produce—he was a one-stop shop … People I’ve spoken to in the industry that have either worked with him or around him have said how humble or gracious he was, how human he was.”
Fresh from his world tour and the release of his sublime sophomore studio album Bridges, Calum shares similarities which resonate within Michael’s story: “He was always putting himself down and thinking he could do better—and that’s something that I massively relate to as an artist. Listening to his music just shows how much he cared about what he did. What makes him even more special is all the charity work he did that he kept completely hidden. He was such a special person and should be celebrated every day.”
Calum will begin work on his third studio album in 2023 with a number of European shows to take place next year also. For details check here.
