Behind the Song
Hey Cruz Fam! I have a song I just had to share with you all. I heard one of the guys playing it in the studio, and it instantly caught my ear. It made such an impression that it quickly found its way to the top of my playlist and has been on repeat ever since.
Montecruz Music is excited to announce July 2026’s Song of the Month: Cruel World by Mathias Julin.
Cruel World opens with a beautiful piano melody paired with a subtle guitar riff that sets the mood for what’s to come. As the song grows, Julin’s vocals make you want to stop and listen.
The lyrics are raw, honest, and really draw you in. The songwriting stands out, telling the story of someone who’s been hurt and let down by the world, but still manages to find a sense of purpose in that special someone.
The powerful vocals, moving piano, and memorable songwriting all come together to make Cruel World feel personal and intimate. If you haven’t heard it yet, give it a listen. You might be hearing one of pop’s next big voices.
“How come in a world, a world full of hate
To be in your arms feels the safest place?”
