Despite being released in 1998, the song has proven to be a strong earner in the digital age
The famous Proclaimers hit Gonna Be has generated an estimated $3.6 million in royalties after being streamed on Spotify more than half a billion times.
The Scottish rockers never imagined the song would land at the top of the charts in Australia and set them up for a lifetime of touring. And its endurance affords The Proclaimers the opportunity to tour the world – the biggest income stream for recording artists. He said: “We never even thought we would have any kind of success in the ‘80s; we thought the songs we were doing were good but that it was a limited market, that we were left field and these weren’t the kind of songs you have hits with.The Proclaimers will also be performing new songs from last year’s Dentures Out album which was released the week after Queen Elizabeth II died.
