Beautiful song

[Kiel D-01]

I have to give his new release a listen. This king deserves.

[Ger]

Just heard it, and wow. I loved "Your Man" last year, but didn't mind to check out more of his material. He knows how to create sad songs, I'll tell you that.

 

Super impressive.  

[fridayteenage]

previous high was #68. first t40, first t20?

[Green]

Is this a new song? Or a viral song becoming a hit because of TikTok?

It came out on Friday.

[Ms. Togekiss]

I wish Anson Seabra would also get a viral hit. That’s Us is one of the best songs of all time 

[dabunique]

King deserves it

[Selenasworld]

This how BTS think they sound 

[Carrie-is-no-1]

#1 US now  what a year with Kate and Joji leading the charts 

[Ger]

WHAT  Omg, this is exploding so hard!

[Ale]

I'm so lost with these overnight hits like who's this and why is it exploding? Is the song good? I'll listen to it later 

[fridayteenage]

could it be a top 10 debut for someone getting their first hit?

I think top 10 debut is possible now. He's still quite low on AM (#21) at the moment but hope the label pulls some SNL card soon.

[Jay L]

Wow Joji getting a smash hit  happy for him!

It's a very pretty song, he knows how to make sad songs.

[Luckitty]

I thought he was a meme I didn't know people actually listen to him 

[chiliam]

What, im so lost with pop culture. Never heard of his name.

Just check out the song and its real good, but how can he snatch that #1 out of no where. A Driver license tea.

[Protocol]

The chorus is a smash

hes not exactly unknown - he was a big youtuber ("Filthy Frank") and has had some big streaming songs that were sleeper hits (slow dancing in the dark, yeah right, sanctuary). his albums both debuted #3 in the US. he has fans!

 

the stars havent aligned for high chart placements really but it looks like they may in this case.

wasnt intended as shady just wanted to give more background on him.

 

SDITD has huge streaming numbers, curious to see updated certs. this song being a hit out of the gate could mean great things for upcoming songs/projects

[Chemist]

Woah an artists that actually deserves a viral hit. Loved him since Your Man//Run

 

Glimpse of Us is also a really nicer song

[Protocol]

Joji was on the verge of a breakout for a while and this is it, this is the one. The "...glimpse of us" melody part where it goes high screams worldwide smash. He will be one of the breakout artists of this year. I foresee more hits, big collabs, Grammy attention, the works.
