James Arthur Opens Up About Anxiety And Panic Attacks
.
(Radio.com) James Arthur may be an up-and-coming artist here in the United States, but he became one of the most recognizable faces in Great Britain after winning The X Factor (UK) back in 2012. The "Say You Let Go" singer wasn't prepared for overnight fame that came along with reality television. "Everything happened so quick. It was never in my plans to be famous. I didn't deal very well with it," he told Carson Daly on 97.1 AMP Radio. "I just pressed the self-destruct button because I put a lot of pressure on myself." After a string of controversies, Arthur eventually lost his record deal with Simon Cowell's label and he had to start over from scratch. "I started making music for myself again and thankfully it connected with people." "Say You Won't Let Go" marked the beginning of Arthur's comeback. It's currently #16 on the Billboard Hot 100 and has spent a whopping 25 weeks on the chart. Just this past September, he resigned with Syco Entertainment. "It brought me back from the dead, this song," he admitted. "It definitely feels a bit kind of like a miracle that it's all kind of come together." Read more here.
