Matt Cardle rocks out with his mates in new Starlight music video

Posted by 03 November 2011 11:42

Matt Cardle’s got a new music video for his next single Starlight. In the clip the X Factor champ rocks out at a late night party with his mates. Well, not his actual mates, but his band and some nice looking extras.

We actually like Matt’s new track, and we hope for the sake of his record deal that it manages to chart a bit higher than his Gary Barlow-penned single Run For Your Life, which peaked at Number Six.

Number Two

Matt’s debut album Letters was recently been to the top of the charts by Noel Gallagher’s current album, which Noel himself actually thinks is a pity. Noel told The Sun, “Matt Cardle seems like a nice bloke. I'd have preferred it if he got it - share the wealth and all that, and he's a young lad just starting out.
 
“When I heard Matt Cardle was out the same day there was a collective sigh because it's The X Factor and these crazy schoolgirls tend to buy a lot of records for some reason. But [topping the chart] didn't make me feel any greater or more special than I did the minute before someone told me it was number one. I like the record and if people like it, that's it, other than that whatever happens, happens.”

“I was glad I made the record and when I finally heard the finished thing it was good but anything else is out of your hands.”

    I agree with Rachy about the 'only No 1 is any use' thing. I'd also say that I think the point of releasing Starlight with the album out already, is to get more interest/sales for that rather than charting highly as a single. When you think about it, anyone can download it for the next few weeks before official release (which wont count toward his singles chart position). He's not aiming to be a big singles artist I dont think; his album sales are the vital thing. And he's doing ok there so far. x

    I quite like it....I have to say though....I don't always get the scoffing at a number 6 single or a number 2 album, not just with Matt but in general. I get they aren't as bright and shiny as a number one nor will they please a record company as much but if I got a number 2 album or a number 6 album I'd be dancing and doing cartwheels.
