pop singer-songwriter Thomas Day releases his new tension filled single “Beg” out now via Arista Records. The release comes alongside literal begging from fans who first heard the song live as part of Thomas’ set while opening for The Driver Era’s North American run earlier this year. The accompanying video sees Thomas bring the video to life, begging for the attention of a woman in a 70s-inspired love hotel.
Thomas shares the simplicity behind “Beg,” “I’m not even gonna lie, this song is exactly what it is. It’s just freaky as hell.” The sensual energy radiates throughout the track: “Give me a taste / Something edible / Wanna feel like your body is medical / Don’t look away / Be an animal / You’re contagious / I’m breathing your chemicals.”
The music video, starring TikToker Sophia La Corte, set in a 70s inspired love hotel full of leopard print bedding and red carpet, opens with Thomas’ hands tied with rope awaiting to be let free by the woman he desires. While leaning in, she whispers in Thomas’ ear “I want you to beg” as she uses a knife to cut the rope. The scene concludes with Thomas being stabbed by the same knife that set him free, embodying the age-old dilemma of giving into temptations despite knowing the consequences.
A busy 2025 for Thomas, “Beg” marks his third single of the year, following the romantic rush of falling for someone on “Sleep When We’re Dead” and his retrospective “Underwear” released earlier this year. 2024 saw his Angel Boy EP, a powerful song cycle that traces love’s arc from infatuation to desolation, which features the earth-shaking piano ballad, “Paper Cup”. Prior to the EP, Thomas shared “Hearts Get Broken” and “Pretender,” which came with an appropriately dramatic music video.
All of that followed Thomas’ game-changing 2023, when he released his full-length Love Me for Another Day project that went on to earn more than a quarter of a billion streams across platforms, and launched his first-ever headline tour across the US and UK — which sold out so quickly that he was upgraded to bigger venues throughout. He followed that tour with another run opening for Joshua Bassett and spent the beginning of this year on a North American run with The Driver Era: Obsession Tour.
