Two singles in one month! How did we get so lucky? 5 Seconds of Summer are showing off their versatility ahead of their 4th studio album, CALM, with their newest single, ‘Old Me,’ and we are reminiscing big time.
The new single is already resonating well with the 5SOS Fam, and the way it showcases the band’s vocal growth and growth as people is putting everyone in their feels.
this song incredibly important to remind us that our past doesn’t define us, and we can grow into something beautiful from it.
i really love this band with my whole heart @5SOS #OldMe #OldMeBy5SOS

the lyric " glad you didn't listen when the world was tryna slow me " is so so so beautiful. they didn't listen to when people told them to just give up , they pushed through and look at them now. #OldMe

In a statement, lead singer Luke Hemmings mentioned that “Old me carries a youthful spirit and follows the narrative of a young persons life growing up, for better or for worse. Every decision we made, whether right or wrong, has led us to the men we are proud to be today. We were thrown into the public eye at a young age and gratefully had each other at a confusing time. Sometimes it’s important we look back in order to appreciate the journey we’ve been on together.”
We’re so glad they’ve allowed us on this journey into adulthood with them and fans have been taking a walk down memory lane since the announcement of the new single, posting their own throwback photos to match the cover art for the new track.

It’s amazing to see footage of the band doing covers in their living room knowing that they are now selling out venues, breaking records and winning awards worldwide.
CALM is set to be released on March 27th, and we can not wait for the album. As the only band that’s had their first three studio albums enter the Billboard 200 charts at number one, we are sure their 4th album won’t disappoint. As we wait for CALM, we can go back in time with 5SOS in the lyric video for ‘Old Me’ below!
