Sheppard
Geronimo
WE SAY
We featured this song first by Australian band Sheppard more than seven months ago and promised it was due soon after. That didn’t happen. But since then this song has grown and grown, becoming a genuine global smash, shifting two million singles around the planet. Five-times Platinum in their native land (where it was also the biggest-seller of last year by a home-grown act), two-times Platinum in Italy, Platinum in New Zealand, Gold in both Austria and Germany, No.1 in the Czech Republic and Top 10 in Belgium, Sweden, Poland, Slovakia, Mexico and The Netherlands. Now fresh from the Meghan Trainor tour in the States and with a new UK release date set, it deserves to explode properly this spring. Feel-good power pop, driven along with a tribal chant of a chorus and a charm that has not for one single second diminished since it was last spotlighted by us all the way back in July. It's had 111 million worldwide streams to date including 4.2 million here, for goodness sakes. Jump on board and don’t stay an April Fool any longer. It's time to truly make this an enormous UK hit, people.
