In my humble opinion, Tom Grennan is truly a remarkable individual who has not only captured our hearts with his soulful music but also shared his personal struggles with unparalleled honesty and courage. His journey, much like one of his catchy tunes, is a mix of highs and lows that resonate deeply with many of us.

Tom Grennan flaunts his exuberant “Christmas number 1” tattoo, maintaining optimism that he might secure the leading position on the festive charts for WHAM! this holiday season.

29-years-old, I, a passionate music enthusiast, joined forces with the colossal Amazon to compose the enchanting holiday tune, “It Can’t Be Christmas,” for their captivating commercial.

On Sunday, the singer posted a picture on Instagram, proudly displaying his belief in his latest success by getting a tattoo to celebrate the possible milestone of his new hit song.

Instead of permanently etching the event with the words on his right leg, the artist asked his audience to allow his recent performance to fail, encouraging them instead to focus on his most current release.

Tom posted a reel on Instagram, saying: “I wanted to make things fun! I’m considering who will be the ‘Christmas No.1 2024’. I’m giving you the power to decide what I’ll tattoo on my leg. Just stream it, purchase the vinyl and let’s see where this goes. Don’t let this opportunity slip away!

The video showing Tom receiving a tattoo played with the lyrics from “It Can’t Be Christmas” – ‘Am I losing my mind? Possibly. Am I going insane? Rescue me.’ On Friday, we eagerly await to see if this song will claim the top spot on the Christmas charts!

Tom’s It Can’t Be Christmas is one of Amazon Music’s new festive releases for 2024. 

Two weeks back, the tune made its debut in the Top 40, landing at number 25. However, it steadily rose and peaked at number 6 on the latest chart released this past Friday.

This action signals the return of the performer, who may achieve similar success to his hit from last year, as that Amazon song climbed up to the second spot on the charts.

Tom will be hoping to beat Amazon’s previous star Sam Ryder’s tune You’re Christmas To Me. 

Amazon has had a strong of successful Christmas marketing campaign featuring UK-based pop stars.

In 2019, Ellie Goulding’s cover of Joni Mitchell’s River, topped the charts.

And the shopping giant has a secret weapon up its sleeve.

They intend to stream it to everyone with an Alexa device, which is likely to significantly increase the number of streams.

And this is not the first time Tom and Amazon have teamed up.

The online shopping platform is eagerly anticipating another triumph, given the viral popularity of Tom’s Gillette song, “The Best a Man Can Get.” (Paraphrased)

The jingle has now proved so popular that the performer includes it in his gig setlists.

According to a source, Tom sealed his agreement with Amazon last month, marking him as the vocal talent for their major holiday advertising campaign.

Similar to how Gillette uses songs recorded by artists like Tom, their advertisements will include his music once the promotional campaign begins, allowing fans to enjoy it during the launch.

‘It’s really catchy and will definitely become an ear worm for anyone who listens to it.’

Amazon is making efforts to get numerous celebrities on board to enhance their advertisements, and they are optimistic about reaching the top spot this year.

For Tom, achieving career success has been accompanied by some personal challenges, as he has lately disclosed his diagnosis with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD).

ADHD, or Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, is a behavioral issue characterized by difficulties maintaining focus, excessive energy, and acting on whims rather than thinking things through.

On Russell Howard’s Wonderbox podcast, airing on Wednesday, Tom mentioned that he’s collaborating with renowned producer Justin Tranter, known for his work with artists like Ariana Grande and Justin Bieber.

Tom revealed details about his upcoming album: “I’ve penned the new songs in the US, and the process has been incredibly rewarding. We delved deep into personal themes. The album explores my battles with various aspects of my life, such as addiction – be it to alcohol or drugs. I’ve chosen to bare my soul, sharing stories from my childhood to the present day, including family matters and relationships.

In June, Tom admitted he found himself in a ‘sinking hole’ as he opened up about his mental health.

The hitmaker, who has always been candid about his struggles, told how he began to write music as a way of expressing his feelings.

Tom expressed to radio host Roman Kemp, during a conversation about mental health with the organization YoungMinds, that he suddenly felt as though he had fallen into a deep pit.

“I found it difficult to rise from bed; I felt as if the entire world was conspiring against me. I harbored doubts about my worthiness, a sentiment I had never shared, neither with friends nor family.

‘So then I started to just write little notes in a notepad and then picked up a guitar.’
