Interesting facts and trivia about Chasing The Sun - 2012 Remaster. By Songfacts®.

This club banger was released as the fourth US single by UK boyband The Wanted from their debut self-titled EP. It finds them declaring that nothing can stop them from going all the way. "They said this day wouldn't come, we refuse to run, we've only just begun, you'll find us chasing the sun," the boys croon. The song was dropped on April 5, 2012.

British rapper and singer Example wrote the song. Example admitted that he originally wrote it for Australian Dance-Pop singer Kylie Minogue, before deciding the tune would suit The Wanted more. He told UK newspaper The Daily Star: "When I wrote it, I was in a studio session for Kylie, so the verses were a bit spiritual. But when we finished I was like: 'This is The Wanted,' and didn't even bother running it past Kylie. I sent it straight over to their record label and they loved it." Here's a list of the Example songs in our database.

The Wanted's Jay McGuiness told MTV News: "Our song 'Chasing the Sun' is basically about the party that keeps on going."
