Released: May 29th, 2014Format: Digital DownloadRecorded: 2013Genre: ElectropopLength: 3:46Label: Studio60 RecordsWriter(s): Isabel Merjos, Sunny MonroeProducer(s): Gia Rose-Hilton, The Outsyders RULE THE WORLDRule The World is a song recorded by Pop singer Isabel Merjos for her fourth studio album. It was released on May 29th, 2014 by Studio60 Records. Produced by Gia Rose-Hilton and The Outsyders, snippets of the song had been posted on the internet via Merjos following up to its release day. She also took to her personal website page where she gave teasers of lyrics to the song such as 'Together we can...Rule the world' with the date '5.29.14' posted in black and pink letters followed by a trending topic, #RuleTheWorld which was trending on Twitter as the number one topic for three days. Rule The World is an uptempo electropop song with characteristic sirens and repetitive hook. Described by Merjos as a self-empowerment and female anthem, the lyrics suggest finding her equal in someone else, possibly a man. Critics and reviewers praise the catchy hook and chorus, as well as intelligent verses. Some also call it one of Isabel's best songs lyrically, with meaning behind every word and sounds more mature and grown up for the now 21 year old.
Merjos recorded her main vocals in Los Angeles, California and in New York City, New York where she was flying back and forth while recording her album. She enlisted the help of fellow music songwriter, Sunny Monroe, to help write the song. Gia Rose-Hilton, who has worked with Izzy on many of her past albums and singles, also produced the track along with the duo The Outsyders who have worked with Britney Spears before. Izzy posted up different images, possibly from the video, and lyrics from the song weeks before it was released. She performed a snippet of it at the iTunes Music Festival at SXSW where the audience and critics were wanting more. On twitter, her fans, Izzybells, managed to trend the song title for three days as the number one trending topic, generating over 2.6 million tweets for it. The song will also be performed at the 8th annual Chaos Awards as her first televised performance of the single.
The uptempo, electropop song uses dark synths which run through a dance oriented beat. The song has been compared to one of Izzy's inspirations and idols in music, Britney Spears, and her earlier works as well as some music from her 'Circus' album. It's written in the standard verse-pre-chorus-chorus form and the track opens with characteristic sirens and electronic drum patterns. Most noticeably are Izzy's vocals and her tone of seductiveness mixed with petulance to give a very diva-like performance. Izzy portrays attitude in the single, not sounding like the 'little sweet and innocent teen as she usually does' notes on critic. For the most part, she stays at a very low register, only singing higher during the bridge of the song and chorus. Her backing vocals almost sound as if they are taunting and trying to persuade the listener that she 'makes it look easy.' Lyrically, the song is about meeting an equal to the point where the two of them could be royalty and rule the world together. She sings several times, 'Watch me on the throne/I'll be the best you've ever kno-oown.' Her quick-witted and confident vocals are one of the highlights of the song, almost begging the question if Izzy talks like this without the sweet image being thrown onto her.
The song is sure to be one for the summer and it's addictive and catchy lyrics are to thank for that, as well as the dance and electronic beat throbbing in the listeners ears. There's also rumors that the song is hinting at her relationship with Ryan Ross Hernandez but Isabel has neither denied nor confirmed those rumors.==== [Verse 1] Look at you, presence always so demanding Reminding me, of a ruler or a champion Everything about you screams that you know what you're doing Nothing bothers you, You've got ice in your veins Look at me, I know I'm your only equal Don't worry babe, we'll be nothing of a sequel Between the two of us there's something, others all around are burning We both know it's not the money or the fame
Rule the world, rule the, rule the world Rule the world baby, oh, rule the world We will rule the world, oh baby You'll be my king, I'll be your queen Rule the world, rule the, rule the world We will rule the world
[Chorus] Watch me on the throne I'll be the best you've ever kno-oown Watch me on the throne I'll be the best you've ever kno-oown (Ooh) You don't believe me? (Ooh) I make it look easy (Ooh) Together we can, rule the world
Watch me on the throne I'll be the best you've ever kno-oown Watch me on the throne I'll be the best you've ever kno-oown (Ooh) You know you want it (Ooh) Just go on, admit it (Ooh) Together we will, rule the world
[Verse 2] It's too bad, you always go a little lower Here's your chance, let me repeat a little slower We can be just everything that people dreamed but know they can't Reach that level, it just runs through our blood I'm not a tease, I've just been waiting for the right one The way you smile, tells me that my search is now done I'll never hesitate to take what's rightfully mines anyway That's who I am, And I know I'll never change
Rule the world, rule the, rule the world Rule the world baby, oh, rule the world We will rule the world, oh baby You'll be my king, I'll be your queen Rule the world, rule the, rule the world We will rule the world
[Chorus] Watch me on the throne I'll be the best you've ever kno-oown Watch me on the throne I'll be the best you've ever kno-oown (Ooh) You don't believe me? (Ooh) I make it look easy (Ooh) Together we can, rule the world
Watch me on the throne I'll be the best you've ever kno-oown Watch me on the throne I'll be the best you've ever kno-oown (Ooh) You know you want it (Ooh) Just go on, admit it (Ooh) Together we will, rule the world
[Bridge] It don't make sense that you would ever downgrade (Rule the world, rule the, rule the world, rule the world baby) Just one kiss could easily help to persuade, but I know you're better than tha-at
Rule the world, rule the, rule the world Rule the world baby, oh, rule the world We will rule the world, oh baby You'll be my king, I'll be your queen Rule the world, rule the, rule the world We will rule the world
[Chorus] Watch me on the throne I'll be the best you've ever kno-oown Watch me on the throne I'll be the best you've ever kno-oown (Ooh) You don't believe me? (Ooh) I make it look easy (Ooh) Together we can, rule the world
Watch me on the throne I'll be the best you've ever kno-oown Watch me on the throne I'll be the best you've ever kno-oown (Ooh) You know you want it (Ooh) Just go on, admit it (Ooh) Together we will, rule the world
Watch me on the throne I'll be the best you've ever kno-oown Watch me on the throne I'll be the best you've ever kno-oown Rule the world, rule the, rule the world Rule the world baby, oh, rule the world We will rule the world, oh baby
