Magne Furuholmen shares about the first single “Im In”: «Im in is a song about total commitment and a show of support for someone who is troubled. Real commitment is a leap of faith. Everyone knows how difficult it can be to offer commitment and support unconditionally but this is what it takes to make anything worthwhile happen; love friendship change self-improvement careers a better world. Easier said than done of course but it begins with an attitude then uttering the words. After this it is all hard work to realize whatever potential your commitment has in the world. without allowing ourselves this attitude everything just gets bogged down with conflicting thoughts doubts and fear. Just say it: Im in.» NORTH 1. Im In 2. Hunter In The Hills 3. As If EAST 1. Between The Halo And The Horn 2. True North 3. Bumblebee SOUTH 1. Forest For The Trees 2. Bluest Of Blue 3.
