On February 24, Gracie Abrams, one of the quintessential baby boomers of these times, released “Good Riddance”, a debut album by Aaron Dessner (The National). It was revealed the expansion of what was offered in 2021 in that kind of mini-album, entitled “This is what it feels like”, and the truth is that the LP works better than its predecessor’s work: although not even in existence in a month, each and every cut is already more they have millions of listeners.
Add ‘Amelie’ or ‘Difficult’ streams in the ballad compendium and add to the qualitative level through ‘I don’t know I don’t need’, the jewel in the crown that bursts onto the stage as the perfect hit after the depressed ‘I miss you, I’m sorry.’ On this occasion, success seems to be determined squarely and squarely: both to the company with the producer “always” and “folklore” and to the way in which Gracie Taylor Swift’s compositional “savoir faire” was internalized, to young people. the creator of “21” and “in the morning” has slightly distanced himself from the oppressive atmosphere to record a minimalist pop anthem, endowed with a timeless essence and a chorus based on upside-down paraphrases.
With more than 10 million listeners sampled around the month, the single set in 2023 is one of the most radioed within the independent pop spectrum. But that is not the best “master” that Abrams connects with the “fast” galaxy: in a few weeks Abrams will present both this song and all “Good Riddance” as an opening act in many institutions of “The Eras. Tour” Taylor Swift. Good “home run” from this girl.
Lyrics from ‘I know the usual work’ by Gracie Abrams
I left here
You’ve heard that you keep the cupboard outside empty
If this year
I come and go in the morning by twenty
What if I don’t want to?
How did I think that slowly?
And he went down the road
You will love me until you are angry
Mm, mm, mm
I thought so too
Tried to work it through anxious pacing
But if I am not
I know the price of time and spirit you are saving?
But it is real
All the splendor of half a decade is empty
The whole width
It seemed to fall apart, it was complicated
Mm, mm, hmm-mm
And part of me wants to walk away until you really hear it
I hate to look at your face and know that we feel different
‘Part of me wants to bring you back, but.’
I know it won’t work that way, huh?
Why don’t you try to move once? That’s easy
I know we all break ties but never really leave
And part of me wants to take you back, but
I know it won’t work that way, huh?
I know it doesn’t work like that
Let me open it
I was not thinking about what you want
It was a tough call
But you’re better off, I’m honest
So don’t stop
Holding me when you don’t want to?
Just brush me off
‘Im’ your cause is now expired, your house is empty
And part of me wants to walk away until you really hear it
I hate to look at your face and know that we feel different
‘Part of me wants to bring you back, but.’
I know it won’t work, huh?
Why don’t you try to move once? That’s easy
I know we all break ties but never really leave
And part of me wants to take you back, but
I know it won’t work, huh?
(Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha) oh, oh
I know it won’t work, huh?
(Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha) oh, oh, oh
I know it won’t work, huh?
And part of me wants to walk away until you really hear it
I hate to look at your face and know that we feel different
‘Part of me wants to bring you back, but.’
I know it won’t work, huh?
Why don’t you try to move once? That’s easy
I know we all break ties but never really leave
And part of me wants to take you back, but
I know it won’t work, huh?
