The king of heartbreak ballads is back — and this time, he’s fighting back.

Lewis Capaldi, the beloved Scottish singer-songwriter with a voice that both breaks hearts and belts out anthems, has made his long-awaited return with a brand-new single titled “Survive”, out now via UMG. And true to its name, this track is more than a song — it’s a battle cry.

Hot on the heels of his record-smashing, soul-baring megahit “Someone You Loved” (now officially 10x Platinum and the UK’s most streamed song of all time), Capaldi isn’t just here to remind us why we fell in love with his music. He’s here to show us what resilience really sounds like.


 “I swear to God I’ll survive…”

Opening with a hauntingly honest admission — “Most nights I fear that I’m not enough” — Capaldi lays his vulnerabilities bare. But in true Lewis fashion, the chorus doesn’t crumble, it roars.

“I swear to God I’ll survive, if it kills me to / I’m gonna get up and try, if it’s the last thing I’ll do.”

This isn’t just another sad song. It’s a fight song for the anxious, the burnt out, and the quietly courageous. A track that hits deep — and then lifts you higher.


 Full Circle with Romans

Reuniting with long-time collaborator Romans, who co-wrote “Someone You Loved”, Survive carries the DNA of Capaldi’s biggest hits — but with the defiant heartbeat of someone who’s been through it and come out swinging.


Small Stages, Big Heart

Before launching this single, Capaldi quietly returned to the stage in a series of intimate Scottish warm-up shows in partnership with mental health charity CALM, during Mental Health Awareness Week. No flashing lights, no pressure. Just music, honesty, and healing — proving that Lewis Capaldi doesn’t just sing about survival. He lives it.


 From Broken to Brave

His last album, Broken By Desire To Be Heavenly Sent, didn’t just top the UK charts — it owned them, producing three UK No. 1 singles (Pointless, Wish You The Best, and Forget Me), while collaborating with hitmakers like Max Martin, Malay, and Phil Plested. It was emotional, critically acclaimed, and outsold the entire UK Top 10 combined during its debut week.


 From Netflix to Number Ones

His 2023 Netflix documentary How I’m Feeling Now  gave fans an unfiltered look at the man behind the music. Vulnerable, GRAMMY®-nominated, and straight to No. 1 on the platform, the film made it clear: Capaldi’s not here to pretend. He’s here to feel, and to make sure you do too.


 A Global Voice for the Vulnerable

Since 2019’s explosive debut Divinely Uninspired To A Hellish Extent, Capaldi has gone from viral sensation to international icon, amassing awards, global chart-toppers, and now — the title of world’s 4th most-streamed song ever.

And yet, even as the stats soar, Lewis Capaldi’s most powerful message remains the simplest: You’re not alone.


 A New Chapter Begins

With Survive, Capaldi reclaims the spotlight — not as the sad boy behind a piano, but as an artist who has weathered the storm, wrestled with doubt, and come out singing. This is more than a return.

It’s a reminder that survival is its own kind of triumph.
