On the heels of his hit single Rush which has amassed over180 million combined global streams to date, Troye Sivan unleashes Got Me Started, the second single from his forthcoming album, ‘Something To Give Each Other’.

Produced by Ian Kirkpatrick, who co-wrote and produced Dua Lipa’s New Rules and Don’t Start Now and Selina Gomez’s Bad Liar, Got Me Startedsamples Shooting Stars from Australian electronic duo Bag Raiders. Sivan wrote Got Me Startedwith Kirkpatrick, Leland, Tayla Parx and Kaelyn Behr.

Troye Sivan explains, “When we were writing this song, I was emphatic about using ‘Shooting Stars’ — I just kept humming it in the studio. It’s a huge sample and was a big ask; and I knew that they had never approved it in the past. So I’m over the moon about the opportunity to sample that track because this song is iconic to me.  And then we have Ian Kirkpatrick on production, who is a genius. I love his work - he had this plan to record the vocal at a slower speed and then speed it up, and ultimately that’s what you hear in the chorus.  I instantly loved the way it sounded.”

Sivan dances his way through the streets and clubs of Bangkok, Thailand in the dazzling official video for Got Me Startedwhich features cameos from actor/fellow UMG recording artist PP Krit and drag queensWarit Kesmanee (Miss Gimhuay), Angele-Anang Pokinwuttipob (Angele), Yutthaphichai Deleon (Gigi), Thanisorn Hengsoontorn (Anne Maywong) and  Tharathep Thaweephon (Gawdland). He shot Got Me Startedwith his team from the Rush video director Gordon von Steiner (Hermès Ski, Versace Man FW22, Dior Rouge, Louis Vuitton Cruise, Miu Miu), cinematographer Stuart Winecoff (JAY Z, FKA twigs, Miu Miu) and choreographer Sergio Reis (BTS’ “Black Swan”).

The New York Times hailed Rush as “a sweaty, kinetic, gloriously hedonistic summer dance floor anthem.” Pitchfork said, “Sivan, already an expert at making winky, slyly subtextual pop songs, manages to inject this trope with virility, producing a sublime, orgiastic summer anthem.”
