Speaking to Riff X‘s “Metal XS”WITHIN TEMPTATION vocalist Sharon Den Adel elaborated on how “The Fire Within” came together. She said: “We recorded it during corona times. And we release it now for the game with IRON MAIDEN, our collaboration with the ‘Iron Maiden: Legacy Of The Beast’ mobil) game. This is a song that didn’t make it for the next album. So we like the song, but it has a different kind of vibe to it. And it’s about keeping things real. ‘The fire within’ is the thing that drives you, the thing that you feel the most. That’s what the song is about.”

“The Fire Within” seven-inch single features both the single version and instrumental version of the track. Due on January 20, 2023, it is available for pre-order as a limited edition of 666 individually numbered copies on orange-colored vinyl at the WITHIN TEMPATION music store.
