The dubstep-influenced song was released as the album’s second single on 28 March 2011. It peaked at number 20 on the French Singles Chart. It is a secondary theme song of the 2011 Copa América tournament.[1] The song has been featured in the episode “Disturbing Behavior” of The Vampire Diaries [2], on its sister show The Secret Circle in the episode “Masked” [3] and Launch Trailer of Forza Horizon.

Music video

The music video for the song was uploaded to YouTube on 4 May 2011. The entire 11-minute music video was shot in the Stade de France, during half-time of the football match between France and Croatia,[5] with the participation of many of the 80,000 fans in the stadium. In the video, Solveig comes into the stadium with a majorette, sings on the tape “Ready 2 Go”, then begins to dance. Later, he runs around the stadium and fans in the stands brandish square papers of different colors to form the words “Ready to Go”.[6]
