Background[edit]
'Written in the Stars' was written by 'iSHi', Mughal, Tempah, Turner and Charlie Bernardo and produced by iSHi and James Perolls.[4] Tinie Tempah first revealed the song on 17 June 2010 performing it live on Sony Ericsson's Pocket TV along with 'Frisky'. Tempah said 'Written in the Stars it is a real passionate track about the sort of struggle that I've had to face. You know I just really feel it as something to perform at festivals as well so I thought I might as well get my practice and start warming up now.'[5]The song was released on 27 September 2010, followed by Disc-Overy on 4 October 2010.
Critical reception[edit]
Robert Copsey of Digital Spy gave the song a very positive review:
Tempah makes abundantly clear on single number three that success wasn't handed to him on a platinum dinnerware set marked 'Doulton'. Au contraire, it was an exhausting journey of 'believing and praying' in a dream that, for a time, 'wasn't going nowhere' – and with his ear-snagging rhymes cloaked in a stadium-sized chorus courtesy of US newbie Eric Turner, we're all going to hear about it whether we want to or not. Oh Tinie, we'll never doubt your work hard, play hard mentality again. .[6]
Music video[edit]
The official music video was directed by Alex Herron[7] and was released on YouTube by Parlophone on 13 August 2010, along with a 43-second trailer of the video three days before, with cameo appearances by Tom Cruise, Brad Pitt, Hugh Jackman, Steve Carell, Angelina Jolie, Julia Roberts, Cate Blanchett, Julianne Moore and Sandra Bullock, The video, shot in New York City, features Tinie Tempah standing and rapping on the roof while Eric Turner is sitting on the piano in a white room playing the chorus. The narrative scenes see a young boy whose life is shaped by the fact he and his mother are subjected to a financially insecure life and he is regularly bullied by his peers and how he is consumed with his book. After an interview with Virgin Media, the rapper claimed the boy 'not to be his younger self in the tennis courts' – he was trying to portray the life of a city boy. It made its US debut on 1 February 2011.
Chart performance[edit]
On 13 September 2010, 'Written in the Stars' debuted on the New Zealand Singles Chart at number 22, beating 'Pass Out', which peaked at number 33 on the chart in March 2010. It later peaked at number 16. The single also managed to chart in Switzerland, where it debuted at number 71 on 26 September 2010, Tempah's first single to make an impact in the country. On 3 October 2010, the track charted at No. 1 in the UK Singles Chart and UK R&B Chart, beating 'Just the Way You Are' by Bruno Mars and 'Let the Sun Shine' by Labrinth, making 'Written in the Stars' Tinie Tempah's second number 1 in the UK after 'Pass Out'. 'Written in the Stars' sold over 115,000 copies in its first week alone, which at that point of the year was a first week figure surpassed only by 'California Gurls' by Katy Perry featuring Snoop Dogg (124,000) and the charity single 'Everybody Hurts' by Helping Haiti (over 450,000). In the European Hot 100, the song debuted at number 5, the highest debut of the week.[8] In January 2011, the single reached a peak position of number 34 and was certified Platinum in Australia.
