Sam Ryder – SPACE MAN (Road To Eurovision Song Contest)

Let's be pals:

Lyrics:
If I was astronaut
I’d be floating in mid-air
And a broken heart would just belong
To someone else down there
I would be the centre
Of my lonely universe
But I’m only human
And I’m crashing down to earth

If I was an astronaut
I’d have a birds eye view
I’d circle round the world
And keep on coming back to you
In my floating castle
I’d rub shoulders with the stars
But I’m only human
And I’m drifting in the dark

I’m up in space, man!
Up in space, man!
I’ve searched around the universe
Been down some black holes
There’s nothing but space, man!
And I wanna go home

If I was an astronaut
I’d speak to satellites
My navigation systems
Would search for other life
But I’d be up here thinking
‘Bout what I left behind
‘Cause I’m only human
With the real world on my mind

I’m up in space, man!
Up in space, man!
I’ve searched around the universe
Been down some black holes
There’s nothing but space, man!
And I wanna go home

Gravity keeps pulling me down
As long as you're on the ground I’ll stick around

I’m up in space, man!
Up in space, man!
I’ve searched around the universe
Been down some black holes
There’s nothing but space, man!
Oh, I’m in the wrong place, man!
Nothing but space, man!
Nothing but space, man!
I’ve searched around the universe
Been down some black holes
There’s nothing but space, man…
And I wanna go home

About Sam Ryder

In 2020, as the world went into lockdown, Sam Ryder uploaded the first of his now infamous covers that quickly caught the attention of some famous fans (think Elton John) with compilations appearing on The Ellen Show & BBC's Newsbeat. As the content kept coming, so did the fans, amassing 10 million on socials by the end of the year. Fast forward to 2021 and Sam was crowned as TikTok's most popular UK artist account for the second year in a row.

In 2021, Sam released his 5-song EP 'The Sun's Gonna Rise' including track 'Whirlwind' that describes Sam’s journey - spending much of his adult life writing and performing in bands, living in Hawaii and owning a vegan coffee shop; before he decided to pursue his dream of becoming a solo artist.

Sam's first show in London sold out in under 10 minutes, nearly as quickly as his first full UK tour. Ready to make his first live foray into Europe and beyond, world domination in 2022 might not be a stretch too far for this incredible talent.
