The energy builds quickly with suspense, accompanied by rock-style vocals that add intensity:
“The sound of you
-Rob Swire (Sound of You)
When my world was going down
All I needed was the sound of you
When my head was spinning ’round
All I needed was thе sound of you
You, the sound of you
When my head was spinning ’round
All I needеd was the sound of you”
The drop radiates Armin’s infectious style of endless happiness. Afterwards, ‘Sound of You’ transitions into a breakdown, maintaining the momentum before building again toward a second drop. The song ends by repeating “Sound of You,” leaving crowds singing along.
