Get ready to hear the song you will probably have stuck in your head from August until January 2019.
The band Imagine Dragons released their next pump-up anthem on Tuesday and it has already been named as the go-to song for ESPN’s college football soundtrack, according to Billboard’s Sam Tornow.
After just one listen, it’s easy to see how the chorus of “Cause you’re a natural, a beating heart of stone, You gotta be so cold, to make it in this world, yeah, you’re a natural, living your life cutthroat, you gotta be so cold…” can become incredibly catchy and speaks to the inner college football player in everyone.
It will likely be heard during the game introduction, coming in and out of commercial breaks and more times than the average viewer can stand.
After the season is over, “Natural” will take its place next to “Roots” by Imagine Dragons in 2015 and Fall Out Boy’s “Centuries” in 2014 as songs that carried fans through the season on television.
