PRESS RELEASE – April 14, 2023

JOHN NORUM releases single CALLING from his latest solo album GONE TO STAY, with accompanying music video.

John Norum is mostly known as the founder and lead guitarist from the rock band Europe that quickly took the name as Sweden’s biggest rock export with the songs “The Final Countdown”, “Carrie” and “Rock the Night” and has sold over 15 million albums worldwide.
On October 28, 2022 Norum released his 9th solo album titled Gone to Stay, and is now greeting his fans with a new single and a music video directed by award winning director Patric Ullaeus from rEvolver Film Company.

CALLING is a hard rock song with a driving rhythm and with catchy guitar riffs. The song consists of powerful guitar solos along with soaring vocals, and highlights Norum’s skills as a guitarist, vocalist and songwriter.

The video is dark, doomy and it reinforces the song’s message of wanting to escape your past and seeking hope somewhere else.

CALLING is out now on all music streaming services:

CALLING – Lyrics
I’m falling like the rain
I think I’m going insane.
I’m running from the flame
relieve me from the pain.
In search of America..
the day is gonna come
anyday now.
I was calling from another place
where the sky is gray
it’s far away.
When I’m gone don’t think of me
’cause I’ll never leave
just let it be.
There’s no place to run
following the sun.
Life has just begun
can you hear the drum?
In a search of a new life
I went to America
where there was hope
anyday now.
I was calling from another place
where the sky is gray
it’s far away.
When I’m gone don’t think of me
’cause I’ll never leave
just let it be.
I was calling from another place
where the sky is gray
it’s far away.
When I’m gone don’t think of me
’cause I’ll never leave
just let it be.
