AceShowbiz - Charlie Puth has finally unleashed his new single titled "Hero" despite his previous doubt. On the newly-released song, the "We Don't Talk Anymore" singer reflects on being someone's unwanted hero.
On Friday, May 24, the 32-year-old singer/songwriter launched his latest single on various music streaming platforms. In the beginning of the track, he sings, "I wanna stop by and play it cool/ It's hard to talk with all these people in your room/ I try to lock eyes and give you clues/ So you can come and follow me out by the pool (Yeah, yeah)."
Charlie goes on to rhyme, "My blood pressure elevates/ When I call you out for bein' fake/ And I don't want to be mean/ But I'm not gonna shut up instead/ I know who you really are/ And your so-called friends,' quotation marks/ I don't wanna make a scene/ She cut me off and that's when she said."
" 'I don't need a hero, I don't want to be saved'/ But I said, 'I'll be here every night and day,' oh/ I don't need a hero, but if you let me stay/ Oh, I can still be here every night and day, oh," the "Marvin Gaye" singer, who unveiled the song after being encouraged by Taylor Swift, continues.
After dropping the single, Charlie got to hear what his listeners thought about it. Making use of YouTube, one in particular gushed, "Wait for so long. And it's here. And finally while listening to it.. I felt overwhelmed. It made me so happy. Thank you for dropping it Charlie and thanks to Taylor Swift too that you dropped it," adding a red heart emoji.
Similarly, another exclaimed, "One of the most beautiful songs he has ever written." A third chimed in, "Best song of 2024 so far, the next song to pass it will probably be yours." A fourth marveled, "Tryin' to listen to this song with headphone and woaa.. the feel of the audio all around me. Especially the vocal layers left/right/reverb effects."
