Guy Sebastian is enjoying renewed success in the US thanks to Oprah Winfrey flick, The Butler.
His track, Battlescars, has just notched up one million sales - platinum - in America alone and is currently getting high rotation on US radio after being used in Winfrey's new film soundtrack.
"UI was sitting on
my couch and The Butler came on and suddenly my song was playing,"
he told the Sydney Confidential on Nova with J. Mo and Elle radio show
on the phone from Los Angeles last night.
"And I keep hearing
it on radio over here. I'm used to hearing my songs on the r4adio in Australia
but definitely not over here so it is really cool."
Battlescars is a collaboration with American Grammy Award winner Lupe Fiasco the pair recorded at Sebastian's Surry Hills studio.

Sebastian, 31, will return home to Sydney for the annual Nickelodeon Slimefest event at Olympic Park Sports Centre on September 27. And he's recorded a new track for the occasion while he's been working on his next album in LA.
"I just wrote a song called Dare To Be Square for Nickelodeon's anti-bullying campaign just here in my little studio in LA," he said.
