This is so tone deaf… kinda surprising for a guy who knows how to sing.

I think that single cover is ******* tacky and in really poor taste. Millions of Canadians & Americans are dealing with the smog right now (including myself) & he’s using it to promote his new single? Idk there are worse things to get offended by, but it’s in such poor taste & timing. Idk what his thought process was doing this but it’s a bit disingenuous.

 

The lyrics are gonna be some vague faux activism mess about saving the earth. I bet he wrote it on a private jet ride. Lmao. 

Proceeds are literally going to charity, you troll.

it's an ok song. why does he sound chipmunk'd on the chorus though?

some of the vocals are very questionable, the song would welcome some polishing, the melody is there. not sure how's it environmental besides the first two verses :skull: he's shameless for using the orange NYC pollution pic.

It sounds like a demo version of a 2010's One Republic song.

it peaked i think at #28 on itunes  but is now out of the top 200.

Overlooking the likelihood that this was just a breakup song that he already planned to release after the end of his second contract, but then just changed the first line to also connect it to recent events... it's a crap song.

No :biblio:  It’s a new song that he made in 25 hours  

 

 

“I was in the studio in New York in a moment of deep frustration and in that moment I finally felt inspiration come after a year and a half in the studio. The words kind of came out of me 'What am I dying for?'…talking about multiple things at once.” — shawn

“It was crazy, before I was struggling to stay in the studio for more than 4 hours but with 'WTHAWDF' we stayed 25 hours straight. We had 3 minutes to deliver the song and we tweaked it until the last second.” — shawn
