An Interview With Sarah Sunday
The latest release from Sarah Sunday brings that classic bright and colorful pop-punk edge to life once again with a vastness that lays just beneath the surface in the form of swelling synth pads that follow along in the chorus and hook melodies that make everything feel so massive.
"All The World Is Crazy" is an endlessly fun and truthful single that pretty much describes part of the youth of the world right now and how there's so much to react to that it feels like it might be a little bit overwhelming.
This song has a great drive to it and never loses its upswing and positive sensibility and the music video that goes along with it has a great animation to it that depicts Sunday singing while footage of population, crowds, and war play behind her.
Technically the song is about the world going haywire and maybe everyone going to war as you have the lyric in the song that says " why on earth would I write a song if no one's here to sing along".
Kind of a scary sentiment but possibly realistic and this gives a great view from her standpoint which I'm sure many agree with.
In terms of how it bears musically, this track is classic Sarah Sunday and these are the things that we really love about her music and her performances.
She's got an energy that is captivating and grabs at you along with that personality and character.
These aspects go for her in general as a songwriter and as an artist and this song sticks with that vibe and it's a good thing because that's part of her staple feel.
This track feels a little bit bigger in terms of the production and still keeps to its pop-rock sensibility but also has this really cool atmosphere that sort of engulfs you.
Is danceable and fun as it still manages to take on a topic that you don't really get a lot of pop songs out of these days.
I think it takes a little bit of guts to be able to write a pop song that focuses on such a hot-button topic like this and how crazy the world is.
One of the best ways to listen to the song is to watch the music video for the first time as it does give you that whole feeling and purpose behind the song.
It's really good to have those visuals along with the music to get a sense of everything that she's trying to say.
With the release of this great new single, we wanted to have a sit down with Sarah Sunday to find out where this track actually came from and what it means to her.
