The Late Late Show with James Corden/YouTube Reading Time: 2 minutes
Former Britain’s Got Talent star Calum Scott appeared on The Late Late Show with James Corden this week to perform his new song “Rise.” The inspiring performance sounded amazing and had the audience applauding before it was even over.
Calum Scott Performs ‘Rise’ on ‘Late Late Show’
Scott released his new single “Rise” earlier this month, with a lyric video to go along with it. The powerhouse anthem shows off Scott’s incredible voice, backed by pounding percussion.
“‘Cause I’ve got my best suit on and I’m ready / I’ve got my sleeves rolled up and I’ll be on my way,” Scott sings on the track. “While my heart’s thumping, ba-bom, ba-bom / You’re gonna see me rise.”
For his late-night performance, Scott was surrounded by flowers and plants, with a band and backup singers behind him. The singer, who earned the Golden Buzzer from Simon Cowell on BGT in 2015, totally delivered. The crowd was clapping and cheering a minute into the performance.
“I wanted to write a song that would empower people to chase down their dreams and to try to embrace life, no matter what they are going through or what their circumstances,” Scott has said of the uplifting track.
