Lionhearted

"Lionhearted" is a song recorded by the American electronic music producer Porter Robinson featuring the Swedish indie pop band Urban Cone for his debut studio album, Worlds (2014).

After fleeing them to North Carolina, where Robinson produced the album, Urban Cone found the instrumental reminiscent of Space Invaders (1978).

Robinson and Urban Cone then wrote the lyrics with an imaginary battle in mind, coinciding with the album's general idea of escapism, fiction, and fantasy.

[6][11] It was officially released as the album's third single on June 17, accompanied by a music video which features Robinson and a group of women "wreak[ing] havoc around the city streets, resulting in an eruption of [color]", according to Mixmag's Carré Orenstein.

[15] Elissa Stolman wrote to Vice that "Lionhearted" successfully blends "windows-down teen nostalgia and rave-friendly power synths".
