At the 2022 ARIA Music Awards, the song earned the Kid Laroi a nomination for Best Solo Artist. The song was nominated for Best Pop Release and Song of the Year.[6]


Background and promotion


Snippets of "Thousand Miles" had been floating around since 2021, but it was not until the following year where it received a proper release.[7] Laroi teased and deleted lyrics to the song, and performed it at his live shows.[8][9] On 13 April 2022, Laroi announced the release date for the song with a link to pre-save the single.[10][11] Subsequently, the artist posted a 10-second TikTok video of himself playing a snippet of the song, encouraging fans to share their own "last mistake" while using the sound before photos of his former manager Scooter Braun flash across the screen.[7][12][13] The clip had amassed over 50,000 likes within two hours of its posting.[12] On 19 April 2022, Laroi took to social media to post a six-second clip of him sitting at a bench before a piano unexpectedly falls onto him. The video then cuts to black and displays the single's release date.[14]


Commercial performance


In Australia, "Thousand Miles" debuted at number four on the ARIA Singles Chart, making it Laroi's fifth top-ten entry.[15] It entered the US Billboard Hot 100 at number 15, becoming his fourth top-20 hit and highest debut as a solo artist.[2]


Music video


The official music video premiered to YouTube on 22 April 2022, the same day the song was released. The theatrical-leaning clip was directed by Christian Breslauer, who has also directed music videos for Charlie Puth and Lil Nas X. It features appearances from TikTok influencer, Katarina Deme, Laroi's girlfriend.

It begins with Deme as a barista with Laroi buying a coffee. The rest of the video depicts Laroi, dressed in white, being tortured multiple times by his evil self, dressed in red. Eventually, Laroi gets hit by a train, with his evil self performing surgery on him after. He then steals his girlfriend in which she pushes bandaged Laroi away in a wheelchair and he ironically gets hit again, this time by an ambulance van.

An American indie artist, Oliver Tree, posted an Instagram video showing how many of the music video's shots were taken from multiple of his own self-directed music videos.[16]
