I got to sit down and catch up with my guy Lewis Capaldi right before he performed before a sold-out crowd at Mission Ballroom in Denver, CO. We talked about his new album, single, his panic attack after a one-night stand, WWE, and a ton more fun stuff. Seriously I want to thank Lewis for taking the time to chat with me.

of glad with how it's turned out, and people have been reaching out and
been faes. It was brilliant.Yeah, it was emotional, it was
motivating. And one of the thingsI wanted to dive into was you tease
the story on there and you neverfinished it, and it was about your
(02:36):
mother picking you up from your firstone night stand. You kind of just
left us with a cliffhanger. Idon't know if I could get that exclusive.
It wasn't my first one night stand, however, I had. I

I don't know if you've ever seena lady lose interest in you so
quickly. But she was actually verycool about it, the girl, and
she was like, it's fine,it's fine, sit down and have a
glassy water blah blah blah. Shewas great. She was really lovely.
(03:22):
And then my mom came pick meup and I went home and that was
that was that really wow, that'samazing, that is amazing. I wanted
to ask you real quick about thispicture that I found a few. Yes,
if you can break this because I'ma huge WWE fan myself. Yeah,

and the new album Broken by Desireto Be Heavenly Sent coming out on May
nineteenth, and make sure you pickthat out pre order. Tell me about
the title of the album because it'slike, it's beautiful but it's sad and
it's just a lyric from a songthat has yet to be released. It

things you don't say to someone thatyou love and when they move on,
