Saint Escape has taken on an iconic song, “Everybody Wants To Rule The World," and infused it with a new alternative rock sound that adds a daring new personality while honoring the original song.
The band recontextualizes the material from a contemporary perspective. There’s a confidence and edge to the “baddiecore-lite” attitude, and the alternative rock framework gives the song a new sense of urgency and energy.
This version’s strength is the boldness to take creative risks. The melodies are still recognizable, but the atmosphere surrounding them feels like pure Saint Escape. The band adds new character to each section, giving listeners a chance to hear a familiar song in a new light.
Saint Escape proves with “Everybody Wants To Rule The World” a classic can be revisited and still remain true to itself. It’s a confident and stylish take that brings the past and present together without losing the band’s own artistic identity.
