Start Again

"Start Again" is the second solo single from Australian singer Conrad Sewell. The song is co-written by Sewell and Jamie Hartman. The song laments the loss of a lover and the fervent hope to get back off to a fresh start. It was released in the United States and Australia on March 10.

The song was almost given to Kylie Minogue but Sewell decided "it didn't sound like a Kylie song" and forged ahead with his own version of the composition.

In an interview on Joy 94.9, Sewell said he recorded the track in one take and was driven by "pure emotion" that just "came easily". Sewell said, "I need to be singing soulful music like this!"

Promotion

On March 11, Sewell performed the song live on The Today Show with Kathie Lee and Hoda and Elvis Duran named him the show's artist of the month. His song was also featured on a preview of the Australian TV show Home and Away.

Ben Haenow (album)

Ben Haenow is the eponymous debut studio album by English recording artist Ben Haenow, released on 13 November 2015, through Syco Music and RCA Records. After winning the eleventh series of The X Factor in 2014, Haenow traveled to Los Angeles to immediately begin development of the album by collaborating with established musicians such as Kelly Clarkson, Julian Bunetta, Iain James, Kodaline, Anne Preven, Red Triangle, Steve Robson, J.R. Rotem, and Amy Wadge.

Haenow described the record as a mélange of uptempo pop rock anthems and pop ballads, making a departure from the rock album he was expected to release following his tenure on The X Factor. Ben Haenow was preceded by the release of its lead single, "Second Hand Heart", which became a top 40 hit on the Official UK Singles Chart. The album's supporting tour, the One Night Tour, will commence in April 2016.

Background and recording

Upon winning the eleventh series of The X Factor, Haenow released his debut single, a cover version of OneRepublic's "Something I Need" in December 2014. The track debuted at the top of the Official UK Singles Chart while simultaneously becoming the UK Christmas number one single of the year. In January 2015, Haenow signed a recording contract with his mentor Simon Cowell's record company Syco Music; and in October 2015, he entered into a US record deal with Sony Music Entertainment's RCA Records label.
