The song’s lyrics, “make your own kind of music, even if nobody else sings along”, echoes the message to promote individuality and encourage people to unlock their full potential. Paloma Faith said, “The idea to inspire people to ‘make their own kind of music’ is extremely powerful, and I am excited to be working alongside ŠKODA to bring this to life.

The new initiative that we are launching will provide real opportunities to young people, helping them achieve whatever they dream possible." Kirsten Stagg, Head of Marketing, ŠKODA UK, added, "Paloma embodies the Driven by Something Different attitude. She has an individual self-confidence, an infectious optimism, and a spirit that sets her apart from the rest. We feel privileged to be working with Paloma as we launch the Driver's Seat Initiative." ŠKODA UK launched the Driven by Something Different brand campaign in early 2017 and featured Sir Bradley Wiggins.
