"Like a Drum" is a song from Guy Sebastian, which it's expected to be the lead single from his upcoming eighth studio album. It has reached the Top 5 in Australia and the Top 20 in New Zealand.

Goes for adds on March 4, according to AllAccess.

Did not expect a US release for this! Can't see it doing anything after "Battle Scars" didn't properly catch on, but, while it's not exactly a great representation or original or anything, it's nice to see Australian songs being given a shot.

I'm surprised at how fast all these generic "Wake Me Up" rehashes are starting to come out.

Well, they haven't made the video available in my country so they can't be that serious about releasing it here in America.  In all seriousness I'm not really feeling it at all. |

Then he might actually fare well here and perform decently on Rhythmic. I recall "Battle Scars" doing well there. |

I was wondering when exactly this was going to be released. I already knew a US remix package had been put together, so an adds date was the next logical step.

He's such an incredible talent. I've given up on him breaking in the USA, but that doesn't stop me from getting the imports on all his albums. I love his voice!

Not a bad song, but there's nothing really standout about it at all either.

I'm actually really liking this. But it does have that "Wake Me Up" vibe that 3 other songs on radio have.

Just need to express my love for this song (and Guy in general). I had a little party when it was released to U.S. iTunes, so hopefully it will do something on the charts.

Guy is one of those artists that I go back and forth on - some of his releases have done absolutely nothing for me, but some were just fantastic. This definitely falls into the latter category. Would be shocked if it did anything, but definitely not upset.

As much as I dislike this song, I think it was the right move realeasing this to US. I mean, if "Wake Me Up" can smash, I don't see why this one can't. I do hope this does well for him; he's an amazing talent and deserves all the success he can get. I love Guy and his vocals are amazing, even on this song, but I can't stand the melody or the style of this one. However, I am still excited for the new album. I loved Armageddon and really hope the style of the new record is more along the lines of that album.
