We Want Your Soul

"We Want Your Soul" is a song by British DJ and producer Adam Freeland; the song made the top 40 charts in several countries,^{[citation needed][dubious – discuss]} and resulted in an award-winning music video.^{[1][unreliable source?]} It is the first song to which Freeland wrote the lyrics;^[2] he describes it as being "about the destructive side of consumer culture".^[3]

Rather than being sung, the song's verses are spoken by a speech synthesizer; the song also features a sample of Bill Hicks.^[2] The song has been remixed by drum and bass duo Ed Rush & Optical, electronic band Product.01 and Australian dance trio Infusion.

Freeland later reported that the Target Corporation sought to license “We Want Your Soul” for use in an advertising campaign,^[4] which he refused.

Austrian electronic music duo Klangkarussell created a remix of the song, released in 2011 through the duo's SoundCloud profile before being including in their 2014 debut album Netzwerk.^{[5][failed verification]}

The track was also used with a new video introduction to open the main stages at Boomtown Festival 2017.
