Adam Wedd is a British songwriter with a classic rock heart and a habit of turning everyday chaos into hooks. For “FIGURE IT OUT,” he literally wrote the topline in a car queue on the way to Metropolis Studios, walked in with traffic still in his head, and shaped it on the spot with producer Ben Collier before sending it off to Alex Wharton at Abbey Road for the final punch. It’s very old-school in spirit: one song, one story, no overthinking, just a riff and a voice pushed right to the front.
“FIGURE IT OUT” comes in fast and doesn’t let up. Guitars hit hard straight away, drums drive forward in big, confident strides, and Wedd’s vocal rides over everything with that “arms in the air, sing it back” tone built for rooms packed with people. The call-and-response ad-libs give the chorus extra lift, like a gang vocal without turning into cartoon stadium rock. Little guitar details keep cutting through the mix, so it never feels like a faceless sync cue, even though it has that exact sync DNA: crisp structure, clear hook, clean payoff.
For sync, “FIGURE IT OUT” fits sports highlight reels, training and workout spots, teen drama moments where someone finally pushes through, car ads, reality-competition victory edits, and any scene that needs a “ready to go, let’s push forward now” rush with real guitars and a lead vocal that sounds fully committed.
