Singled Out: In Search Of Sun's The World Is Yours

Today Adam Leader the frontman of the UK rock/metal band In Search Of Sun tells us the title track to the band's debut full length, "The World Is Yours," which was released this week. Here is the story:

"Like most songs, 'The World Is Yours' started with a riff and for this song it was that prominent chorus riff that came first. As soon as I heard it I felt instantly uplifted! My first feeling was that this tune was going to sound massive and that's exactly how it turned out. The more we added to it and structured it laid credence to the fact that this song was going to be a monster and could only be justified by a monster vocal line.

I'd been playing around with vocal ideas for some time and decided to get feedback from the other boys. It came fairly quickly actually, which is surprising for us because with the majority of our tunes we'd have to go through about a million different vocal lines for all of us to be like "YES! THAT'S THE ONE!" However, this one seemed to just click.

Lyrically, it's about making something of your life. I'm trying to encourage people to not just give up. Life is way too short to just think "Oh sh*t, I'm in my twenties now, I need to get a stable job and my own place." The song is basically saying f*** that! Get up and do something real because there is so much more to life than having a few quid in your bank account and a place to live. Don't get me wrong, everybody wants their own house and some money but if you give up on your dreams to have that then what's the point? I'd rather be the king of a council estate if it meant I get to do this for a living as opposed to being a suit in the city putting numbers into a computer 5 days a week.

Live life to the max. The world is yours if you want it to be!

Hearing is believing. Now that you know the story behind the song, listen for yourself as you watch the video here and learn more about the album right here!
