Calum Scott Returns With New Song “Biblical”
British singer-songwriter Calum Scott returned with a new song “Biblical” on June 11, 2021.
The song is first single since the 2018 debut studio album “Only Human”. Also, the track is the first single off of his upcoming sophomore album.
It was written by Corey Sanders, James Bay, Jon Maguire, Calum Scott and Jon Green, who also produced the track.
The accompanying music video was directed by Franklin & Marchetta.
“While I know the word ‘biblical’ has spiritual connotations to many, Biblical to me is about unquantifiable love, a love beyond description or measure, a love of biblical proportions that transcends everyone and everything,” Calum Scott said of the song in a statement. “If I can aspire for one thing for this song, it’s that the listener hears it and fits a name, a face, or a passion to the lyric and makes it their story.”
He continued, “’Biblical’ gave me contentment during a really awful time: it was a song that I had almost given up searching for, one that truly spoke to me. Finding a song you feel so connected to is the closest to magic you can get.”- He said, “Lockdown had presented all of us a moment to realize how much people mean to us and how sometimes we take that for granted. Singing that sentiment enabled me to release and reflect those emotions, immortalizing them..”
He added, “The song means so much to me that I wanted to make it the first thing people hear when coming back with new music. Having seen how my music had reacted with people over the last three years, it gave me an opportunity to absorb what I had experienced, to mature and become an artist with a mission. I want to create something for people to feel seen, heard, and represented.” - source : Spotify
