Some people say that life is a party and part of the reason for that is a desire to live life to the fullest. In her newest single, “There Is No Rule”, Los Angeles-based pop singer Whitney Lyman encourages listeners to have fun while doing whatever makes them happy.
Production wise and lyrically, the song has influences that are reminiscent of Pink’s “God Is A DJ”. The song opens with a funky bass groove as Lyman sings and urges the listener to stoke their inner fire and do whatever they want.
By the time the chorus comes in, the bass groove takes on a slight pop-rock vibe that makes the listener want to dance. Lyman’s lyrics do the same as she sings and tells the listener to let loose and enjoy themselves.
