== Description ==
Title track off of the album [[Will of the People (album)|Will of the People]]. The song's name has been "officially" leaked on March 14th, 2022 via the JSON output from [https://wontstanddown.muse.mu/api/v1/catalogue/new/ wontstanddown.muse.mu], which contains basic album info. In late May of 2022, Apple Music began showing the track length of the song in the album playlist, while Amazon set up a release date of June the 1st. The song itself got leaked on May 26th, 2022, while the official release date of the single was announced a day later.
Will Of The People has previously been teased by Muse through a couple of short clips, on [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nzHnwHzp9o4 YouTube] and [https://www.instagram.com/p/CbLgvvBqtzI/ Instagram], revealing the album's name. Upon the album announcement, Warner described it as a track that "''brings playful provocation to a dystopian glam-rocker''"<ref>https://themusicuniverse.com/muse-announces-will-people/</ref>
== Instrumentation ==
The track starts out with a looping choir, built up of layers of Matt Bellamy chanting the line "The Will of the People". The same loop appears throughout the song. The track itself is based around guitar, bass and drums, with some guitar-synth layering, which is especially noticeable during the last part. It also features a lot of "ooh"s and "woah"s throughout the song, aswel as a high-pitched scream, at around 2 minutes and 42 seconds.
The song is similar to the work of Green Day’s Uno, Dos and Tré era, aswel as the Father Of All... era, bearing also some resemblance to [[Uprising (song)|Uprising]] and [[Psycho (song)|Psycho]], written in the same swing rhytm. It's also been compared to [[Pressure (song)|Pressure]] and [[New Kind of Kick (song)|New Kind of Kick]], having the same "rock'n'roll" feel with the saturated vocals. The song runs in A-Major and at a tempo of 130BPM.
