It also won the Brit Award for Best single in 1988. Stock Aitken and Waterman wrote and produced the track which was the lead-off single and lead track from Rick’s debut LP “Whenever You Need Somebody”.  The album was itself a UK number one and would go on to sell over 15 million copies worldwide.\n\nThe legendary video was directed by Simon West – who later went on to make Hollywood blockbusters such as Con Air, Lara Croft – Tomb Raider and The Expendables 2.

How do I get TikTok sound details with an API?
Send a GET request to /v1/tiktok/song with the clipId parameter. SocialCrawl returns the sound's title, artist name, duration, usage count (how many videos use it), and cover image URL.
Where do I find the TikTok sound clipId?
The clipId is returned on the Post endpoint (music.id) and the song/videos endpoint. You can also copy it from a TikTok sound URL. The last path segment after /music/ is the clipId.
What does usage count mean for a TikTok sound?
Usage count is TikTok's video count for that sound, how many public videos currently use the track. It is the most direct signal of a sound's virality at the moment of your request.
Can I list videos that use a TikTok sound?
Yes. Call /v1/tiktok/song/videos with the same clipId to get a paginated list of videos using the sound, each with the standard view, like, comment, and share counts.
How much does the TikTok Song API cost?
Each request costs 1 credit on the standard tier. New accounts get 100 free credits with no credit card required, so you can pull around 100 sounds before paying anything.
