Best of 2025: Guy Sebastian talks career, creative process, latest album on Saturday Morning with Jack Tame

"A snapshot in time": Guy Sebastian discusses his creative process, latest album  Guy Sebastian is an Australasian icon with a career that’s nothing short of extraordinary.  From winning the first season of Australian Idol back in 2003, to carving out a place on the charts, to mentoring new talent as a coach on The Voice Australia – he's been in the spotlight for over two decades.  And now he’s embarking on a new chapter with the release of his tenth album ‘One Hundred Times Around The Sun’.  The album has taken Sebastian nearly five years to make, a much longer period than the typical six months to two years most artists these days create them in.  He told Jack Tame that in the early stages of his career, he felt pressure to create quickly.  “Don’t take longer than a year,” Sebastian explained. “Or you’ll disappear into obscurity.”  “Then there’s like, the pressure of doing the right thing by the fans, y’know, you don’t wanna make them wait too long.”   It’s a mentality that used to govern much of Sebastian’s process, but one that he’s managed to grow beyond.  “I just got to this point where like, I don’t want to release anything until I’m stoked with it,” he told Tame.  “I wanna love every song. I don’t want a filler on there, I want every song to be great.”  LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
