Lewis Capaldi scored his first No. 1 with Someone You Loved.

“I have no clue why this piano ballad has done what it’s done,” said Capaldi. “I never thought we were writing a big song here. I just wrote a song and, thankfully, people seemed to like it.”

“I feel like America’s sweetheart, at least for a moment,” Capaldi told Billboard. “I feel like I’m the sweetest heart in all of the US of A.” “I feel like I’m a wrestler, and I’m just walking out [to the ring] and there’s an American flag, and I’m saying, ‘USA! USA!’ That’s what I feel like, a wrestler.”

The 23-year-old, who still lives with his parents, added that breaking the US meant, “I’ll be able to pay the rent for the next few months!”
