From Number 2 in Malaysia to Global Recognition: The Rise of Tor James Faulkner’s “Realise”

Following the success of a Top 5 UK mini-album, Tor James Faulkner is set to release his highly anticipated new single, “Realise,” on September 5th, 2025. The excitement surrounding this release is already evident, as “Realise” has achieved the impressive feat of reaching number 2 on the Malaysian airplay chart prior to its official launch.

While their summer hit, “No Way, No Way,” encapsulated the essence of a carefree season, “Realise” represents a profound moment of self-discovery that ensues. Penned by Frances Potter of the UK girl group VANILLA, this track offers a candid exploration of a toxic relationship, capturing the pivotal moment when one recognizes the extent of their suffering and chooses to move forward without looking back.

Having been featured on both the Top 5 mini-album “No Way, No Way” and the extensive 72-track compilation “Moonlight,” which reached the Top 20 of the UK digital charts, “Realise” is poised to make a significant impact. The single will also include a radio edit and various mixes for fans to appreciate.

Distributed by KNO PR, “Realise” transcends the realm of music; it stands as a powerful declaration of independence.
