He said he wrote and recorded it in a day and it shows. At least he is donating money. :clap3:

It’s pretty good for a charity single. Or just in general. Nice instrumental, and he sounds nice on the verses. The lyrics are even okay. Overall, at least as good as “Only The Young” so I can’t complain.

Poor thing. This isn’t about wildfires, he’s in his feelings cause ‘mila dumped him again

Cool that the song was created in the last 24hrs. Could use a lil more polishing, but it's good :jamming:

The cover :rip:

The cover and theme is serving that 9/11 country song that was released right after the attack :rip:

wonder if the song is about Camila following their breakup.

 

 

part of it sounds like that to me

 

[Verse 1]
Smoke in the air, the city's burning down
I wanna speak, but I don't make a sound
Locked in my mind, you're all I think about (Mm)
I wanna save us but I don't know how

 

[Chorus]
If we don't love like we used to
If we don't care like we used to
What the hell are we dying for?
If it doesn't cut like it used to
If you're not mine and I'm not yours
What the hell are we dying for?

 

[Verse 2]
I see it in the news, I see it in your eyes, ooh
I try to let you go, then I choke, I change my mind
(Change my mind, ooh)
Let's face the truth, I'm terrified (Ooh, ooh)

 

[Chorus]
If we don't love like we used to
If we don't care like we used to
What the hell are we dying for?
If it doesn't cut like it used to
If you're not mine and I'm not yours
What the hell are we dying for?

 

[Bridge]
Living without you
Is not living at all

 

[Chorus]
If we don't love like we used to
And we don't care like we used to
What the hell are we dying for?
If it doesn't cut like it used to (Doesn't cut)
If you're not mine and I'm not yours (I'm not yours)
What the hell are we dying for?

 

[Outro]
Living without you
Is not living at all
Living without you (Baby)
Is not living at all
So what the hell are we dying for?

It’s definitely about her and the cover art is SHAMELESS

The cover and then the song starting with "smoke in the air, the city's burning down"

 

And then immediately spending the rest of the song crying about getting dumped by Camila

 

It's all so funny to me :toofunny2:

Did he really try to spin this as a protest/charity song? :deadbanana2:

Posted

Production needs more oomph, but this is solid. I really like it.

Who on his team thought it was right to connect this song to the fires... It's so weird.

You can tell he's with Island Records

So tasteless :rip:

Why are Atrlers pretending to be offended by a cover that’s an actual current photograph? :rip:

 

the song is okay but I don’t think I will actively play it again
