And that video cuts the song short. It really does go on. So much Warriors. I thought this might be a funny one-off but let me tell you: it is not.

They are the warriors that built this town, you know. From dust, no less. While Riot’s music department have collaborated on far better pop songs in the years since (virtual girl group K/DAbeing a highlight) I still insist Warriors was the best Worlds song. And now it’s in Sweet Home, undercutting dramatic scenes and triumphs. As much as Imagine Dragons insist I do otherwise, I might turn anyway now.
