In the mid 1970s, Ridsect was one of the pioneer insecticides that developed into an aerosol spray can and widely used by residents living in the rural areas. When urbanization took place in Malaysia in the 80s, Ridsect aerosol spray migrated along with the rural residents to the urban centres. In the late 80s, Ridsect overtook the urban aerosol brands to become the market leader in aerosol insecticides. Today, Ridsect is still the dominant market leader in aerosol insecticides with nearly half of the market shares.
The success of Ridsect in the aerosol segment encouraged the brand to expand its equity to other segments like mosquito coils, mats and liquid vaporizers. By 2004, Ridsect became the leading total insecticide brand in Malaysia up till today. In 2011, Ridsect was acquired by S.C. Johnson & Son.

‘Everything’ is a satisfying, self-assured debut single from the up and coming artist Lynsey Grace; featuring an evocative, epic and atmospheric pop ballad. Mancunian Singer/Songwriter Lynsey Grace teamed up with film composer Jon Brooks to produce her first emotive single. She’s creative, passionate and likes to express herself through songwriting. Lynsey Grace draws her inspiration from her life experiences, looking to connect with the listener. Jon Brooks specialises in Music Production for Film, Television, Artists and Advertising. Lynsey and Jon have been working together over the last year and intend to release some more of their material in the very near future.
ARTIST NOTES:
(Lynsey Grace) ‘Everything’ is a very personal song to me and one which I’m excited to release as my first track from my body of work. I’m extremely proud of the song as I poured a lot of emotion into the lyrics. I hope the listener will feel this and be able to relate to some of the lyrics themselves. Jon Brooks created the emotive and beautiful music which complements the lyrics and enhances the emotional response I was aiming to express. The track is soulful and raw, and there is no doubt this song was written from the heart. 'Everything' is a very special song to us both; it was the first track that really connected with Jon and I. It also confirmed we have a special creative bond and musical working relationship.

LYRICS:
Verse 1:
Only now I see
Only now I know the truth
Forbidden for so long to know the reason why
Heartfelt was my plea to take away the pain I felt inside
Trying for so long to understand the reason why
Pre-Chorus
I don’t know why everything is different
Every time I look at you I feel this pain
And I don’t understand why everything is different
Every time I look at you I feel this pain
Chorus:
Time to, to take a bow now
Show me this person
That you’ve become before me
I’m not willing or able
I walk away
I’m not willing to stay
Verse 2:
So sure I knew the way
So certain that I can’t deny
Of everything I knew
Of everything that once was mine
My heart has fell into an empty space I cannot see
Been trying for so long to understand the reason why
Pre-Chorus
I don’t know why everything is different
Every time I look at you I feel this pain
And I don’t understand why everything is different
