As he read all the system notifications, Aiden barely managed to stop himself from grinning. His skills had improved all round and he had never expected ‘Revolution’ to get so many views suddenly..
In the first place, he didn’t know it would go viral suddenly.
“You said it got viral due to videos?”
Aiden asked after closing off his system. He hadn’t forgotten that he was still in the hospital room and a lot of people were here.
“Yeah.” Wade replied, thinking back to the social dia response in the last three days. “Many people are calling you a hero for trying to save Emily’s life. Your reputation can’t get any better than this. Because of you, a lot of people are getting to know about ‘Revolution’ and streaming it. It might even go over 200 million views by the end of the year just on Tube.”
“It’s kinda ironic I needed to get stabbed to get a great reputation.”
Aiden chuckled at that. At least sothing good had co out of this.
He had never expected that this sudden incident would bring him this much attention. It was truly unexpected but Aiden very well knew that life was very random at tis and now that the attention was on him and ‘Revolution’, it would be the best to use it.
“If so many people are listening to ‘Revolution’, then there must be a lot of offers coming for shows and events?”
He asked Wade who nodded his head.
“Yeah, a lot of offers are there. I went through so of them and they are very good, both in money and to increase popularity. But Aniroll is rejecting them at the mont for obvious reasons.”
“Yeah, but a lot of them said that they are fine with waiting until you are out of the hospital.”
Uncle Sam added. Aiden nodded and thought about it for a mont. He would still be in the hospital for a while and in his eyes, it was not good for them to not take up on shows.
People were interested in the song because the incident was still fresh but after a few days, they would move on. Nothing stays trending on the internet for too long.
“I think we should still get so shows.”
He suddenly said, getting glares from everyone present in the room. Wade even looked ready to tie him up to bed if he tried to say that he was going to sing in this condition.
“You can’t sing in this condition, Aiden. Don’t be ridiculous.”
Uncle Sam frowned and muttered but Aiden quickly shook his head.
“I’m not saying I will go sing. I just said the band should take up on shows. They are fine without .”
“What?” Jackson raised his voice and tilted his head in confusion.
“You are all good enough to perform on your song. They will be playing the recording in the background anyway.”
“Who will be the vocalist?”
“Caron.”
Aiden glanced at Caron who suddenly felt all the attention on him.
“It’s not my song, Aiden. It’s yours.”
“It’s the band’s song. You are a part of it and only you can do it. Emily could be the sub vocal. Think about it. We are trending right now. No guarantee we would be trending in a week. In the end, I will join the band as soon as I get out of this place.”
Aiden’s words definitely made Caron think as he went silent. Even Wade and his uncle felt like his words weren’t wrong.
Both of them knew how the social dia and entertainnt industry worked.
If tomorrow, so famous celebrity gets pregnant, she was bound to be on the news, kicking any talk about ‘Revolution’ or Drears as most people would only talk about a trending or viral topic.
“Okay, I will do it.”
That was Caron’s final answer and Aiden smiled hearing it.

A lot of dia outlets covered the topic of Aiden and how he had gotten injured to save one of his bandmates from an attack. One of the magazines which covered it was Record, a popular music magazine.
They have earlier covered Aiden during one of their issues last year when ‘Lonely’ was released. Though, they mostly focused on Grey throughout the article.
But this ti, they have written an exclusive on Aiden.
In one of last year issues, we covered Aiden Silvereye, a singer who had gone from being a contestant in a reality tv show to feature in a song with Grey and now, after ending the last year with an award, he had started the next one by getting stabbed and bringing his band and his single a lot of attention that they thoroughly deserved.
It’s very hard to think that a rookie band, one which had been created for just one song, would overtake a song from Imagine Giants in the charts.
Maybe it’s the first and the last ti this has happened.
Now, the question is how does that even happen?
If one is on social dia, there’s no way they have not seen the video of Aiden tackling a psychopath to save his friend. The video had given him a lot of fans and many people are still calling him a hero.
But is that enough to overtake one of the most famous bands in the world? No, it’s not until the song itself is very good.
There’s no way ‘Revolution’ would have stayed on top of the Top 50 New single charts for more than a day if it was just a viral sensation. The thing is the song was already being promoted a lot by ani viewers as it’s the English title track of one of the most famous ani currently going around.
But the incident Aiden was involved in gave the song the required push that made it such a sensation.
It can’t be argued that Aiden himself is a great singer and songwriter but like many others, his influence is only in a limited space with not a lot of people knowing him. At most, they would have seen him here and there but won’t follow his music a lot.
That’s actually the fate of an indie musician but ti after ti, Aiden had proven that he’s soone who would intentionally or unintentionally find a way to make his music reach the audience.
That’s what had happened with ‘Revolution’.
No one would have imagined that because of such an incident, the song would beco such a huge hit. It’s already the best rated and most viewed English ani title track and with this, Aniroll surely has answered back to their critics.
This makes one wonder. Would he be able to do things like this again and again and eventually break the door to mainstream? It’s hard to say as he can’t just get stabbed every ti to get his song to go viral but he had enough talent and a lot of innovation.
After all, no one had ever made a band just for one song.
When we talked to Stephen Greg, the executive producer for [Attack for Freedom], he told us, “We were very surprised when we were inford that Aiden had made a band because he thought that the song suited a band more. It was a very strange decision financially as it would an less inco for him but he was just focused on getting the best out of his song.”
That sentence is enough to understand that Aiden Silvereye is at least not a singer who’s after the riches but soone who just wants to make good songs and present it the best way.
This is a rare quality in this age and maybe it just stems from the fact that he himself is the composer for all of his songs, but it gives a music lover hope that his songs won’t disappoint them.
Now, for the conclusion of the article. It’s very safe to say that Aiden isn’t just another viral sensation. He’s surely much more than that but only ti would tell if he’s going to prove himself as a star or soone who was just lucky.
As luck eventually runs out, we will know the answer sooner or later.
But at this mont, it’s very safe to say that until now, Aiden hadn’t put a wrong foot in his short career and had truly made a na for himself, no matter how small it seed currently.
