Background

In March 2017, Dan Reynolds told People that the song was inspired by his experiences with ankylosing spondylitis in 2015. He said that, "The meaning of the song is really reflecting on specific things in my life that were painful, whether it was anxiety and dealing with crowds, feeling overwhelmed by that or the success of the band, disease, going through depression—anything that was a source of pain in my life. And just rising above that, finding a place of perspective where I could be appreciative of the pain in my life and make it my greatest strength." [10]

According to the sheet music published at Musicnotes.com, "Believer" is an allegro tempo of 125 beats per minute. Written in the time signature of 12/8, the song is in the key of B♭ minor. Dan Reynolds' vocal range spans from A3 to D5 during the song. [11]

It features a boxing match between Reynolds and Dolph Lundgren, with some scenes showing what seems to be a young Dan drawing on his notepad in scenes. Dan is losing, and he says that he wants to stop, but Dolph replies "We can't." It ends with Reynolds barely conscious, while Young Dan is revealed to have sketched a symbol identical to the one on Reynolds' chest, the "Evolve" symbol. As of June 2023, the video has over 2 billion views and over 21 million likes. It is currently the most-viewed and most-liked video on the band's YouTube channel. [12] [13]
