BIG NEW SONG............. as in BIG!! With Lupe Fiasco www.take40.com/news/33160/listen:-guy-sebastian's-new-song-'battle-scars'---with-lupe-fiasco! this taste test doesn't do it justice one little bit. I've heard the whole and its totally amazing. BATTLE SCARS.................. new favorite song, coming August 10 but its hit radio already. so many already on youtube, as he sang this on his June tour with Ben Burgess, who deserves full mention too. The video, still coming, was filmed in New York. can't wait! Smilies

well done! I thought I saw the video too, but once I was logged in it seemed to disappear. LOVE the song. Here's link to the *coff* international one, which I honestly think is the way to go www.youtube.com/watch?v=CEE75fGOq38

Ok I've managed to place the Official Video of 'Battle Scars' on main page.......but I have to ask....Have they changed it slightly?? it seems as though it's got more close ups or something...I don't think it looks as clear and clean as the one I had up...Maybe it's just me.....?? Just saw a great interview with Guy on MusicFix where he talks about Lupe and how he's into his music etc.....I'll find the link and post it up....Guy got a little side tracked at one stage and went all gooey talking about Hudson......lol.........it was so sweet he's absolutely besotted with his son......(ahh yes I remember the days when my 3 lil boys were that age....haha should I tell Guy they do grow into teenage nightmares....or let him enjoy it while it lasts.........lol)

ha ha!! Oh yes, even with the dirty nappies and crying, probably the 'nicest' time of children. Just a quick pop in here with the following It all but took number 1 spot on Oz iTunes the very first day (Justice Crew have a huge one atm, Boom Boom) and just a quick repost here - Except for a very small amount of time, Guy and Lupe with "Battle Scars" have been #1 on iTunes for the whole week, even holding off Taylor Swift. Loved the rather sweet tweet of one Taylor fan, who asked Guy whether he wasn't being a bit selfish with the #1 position there, and how about sharing it out a bit to others :haha: :wub: Love this tweet from @lupefiasco too RT @lupefiasco: Yo GuySebastian I think #Battlescars is my FIRST #1 single! ANYWHERE, EVER!!! hahahaha...Thanx bruv...AUSSIE, AUSSIE, AUSSIE!Guy tweeted the other night that Oz loves him, and a later tweet from Lupe in the last 24 hours, #BattleScars is #1 in Australia...let's see what it'll do in The US... has us really excited!! :w00twave: :wub: www.youtube.com/watch?v=CEE75fGOq38and I MUST redo my siggies. Haven't properly redone mine on the official forum either. xx Have you also ordered the one off the website? If you do, DO remember to TEXT GUY first, then with all the others. Some haven't, and seem so happy and just commenting they haven't got replies. I'm suspecting they've forgotten to put his name first.

WOW!!!!
MADE IT TO #13 IN THE FIRST 24 HOURS!!! Purely with media support.
Radio should commence within the next few days
NOW at #11 on the Overall iTunes chart! Unbelievable, and I wonder whether this has really happened with anything else.
The fact its a Lupe Fiasco / Guy Sebastian track collaboration seems to have hit everyone. Lupe has two great new tracks out atm, one which was launched almost at the same time. They're charting reasonably well, but NOTHING NOTHING like Battle Scars!
All countries, in that we can see, already charting in around a 1/2 dozen, taking off in Singapore, but poor UK is being left for some (hopefully big) launch. SO SO many UK fans are desperate

3 WEEKS AT #1 ARIAS.......SO PROUD OF GUY. Still waiting for the hard copy from Sanity....lots of delays....not to mention still waiting for Album... Did you know Lupe was on Ellen about 4 weeks ago? She's a fan apparently..... Will have to suggest she get him back on (with Guy of course) I find I can't go a day without watching the video clip of Battle Scars.....very addictive.

hopefully he'll tour around overseas next year :flowers: We're truly sorry for everyone, including Guy :haha: that he is just TOO busy - I mean if you're offered great gigs and opportunities here, it makes it very very hard to take a chance to turn down what is a massive career to take chances elsewhere. Guy's 2013 Get Along Tour is pretty well sold out in most of the original venues and dates, but they have secondary dates available. That goes for Melbourne, Sydney, Adelaide and Perth. In Brisbane its getting very close but the Convention Centre is one of the larger venues, so I'm not sure whether 'they' would book it for a second night, or possibly grab a chance to have a show in a different venue, say down on the Gold Coast which is only an hour or hour and a half for others to drive. Plus as its a holiday area, there's lots of accommodation and much to do. We South East Qlders will cross our fingers. All dates and their links are on his official site www.guysebastian.com.au/Guy and LUPE (surprised the ARIA mob) performed at the ARIAS on Thursday night - Guy is always performing there, mainly because he usually has at least one #1 record for the year and is a great viewer puller. And no, he didnt get an award, as usual. Did I mention that the Aria people are happy to change the goal post (Award requirements) or even REMOVE it for that year if it looks like he must get it? Like they did that one year, so he missed, and then brought it back the following year because another artist was there for it. It's such a shonky deal these days that it was shown on a little known channel to only just over 300,000 viewers, just imagine if Guy hadnt been performing! :rolleyes: The overseas stars were Taylor Swift and Nicki Minaj. Taylor performed. And all the Aria favorites got their usual awards (quite often, multiple - I've seen some get 5 or 6 awards, which makes a hole in any award giving doesn't it) btw - at least Matt Corby got a gong, 1st reality show EVER contestant to get one. Matt has been careful to totally step away from Idol, so he receives airplay from the Triple J mob and is therefore acceptable to aria he does consistently sell his EP and no doubt is writing more songs, although he hasn't had to. He was at the Myer ball last night and the set list was unbelievable! I am SO jealous of any being there. He actually sang a ton of unusual modern covers, some totally unexpected and fun, he didnt finish until after 1am and was on the redeye special flight back home this morning! haha: wondering if he's trying to get a game of cricket in.. probably the only thing he'd fly the redeye for. Mind you, he's in the middle of trying to finish renovating the holiday home nearer Sydney area before Christmas A relative of the beard fella posted this on twitter and congrats Guy... AND its been tweeted again today 2DayFM 104.1 þ@2DayFMSydney BRAVO GuySebastian you have the BIGGEST SONG OF 2012!! "Battle Scars" is at Number 1 with @lupefiasco - What a brilliant song! #2DayHot50 New Zealand next week for their Christmas Carols in Auckland I believe and here's the link to the best ARIA performance - way better than the relayed one on TV, youtube.com/watch?v=k3T0Um… @lupefiasco & Guy were just... #wordsfailme
