Calvin Harris [Andrew Swartz | iHeartRadio/Turner Networks Press]
Update: Calvin Harris confirms that the green image is the cover art for his new song called “My Way.”
Per a Harris Tweet, the song will premiere on Friday, September 16.
Columbia’s weekly radio newsletter confirms the September 16 date. It also suggests that “My Way” will be imminently pushed to the pop radio format.
“My Way” is the follow-up to Harris’ “This Is What You Came For (featuring Rihanna).”
=============
Last week, Calvin Harris posted a new social media image/icon that resembled his “This Is What You Came For” cover art but featured a green background and pictures of birds.
The obvious assumption is that Harris posted the image to tease the release of his new single.
More fuel has been added to the fire of speculation.
Monday’s edition of the Columbia pop radio promotions newsletter features the same image under the “coming soon” section.
It should be noted that the newsletter does not provide additional details — be it the name of the song, a release date, or even confirmation that it is a Calvin Harris single.
That said, given the timing of the release (“This Is What You Came For” recently peaked) and the extent to which the image is plastered on Harris’ social media, it is hard to envision any other possibility. This indeed appears to be indication that a new Calvin Harris single is coming soon.
