about

(Better Off) I Remember Those Times is the latest single from the nostalgically inclined singer-songwriter Buddy Greenbloom. His vocal timbre resounds with the same magnetic pull as the likes of Dylan and Cohen, but there’s plenty of extra twang from the notorious singing cowboy who made a name for himself in 2003 with his alt country covers of infamous punk rock tracks.

With reminiscing on how it felt to smoke in bars, drink in cars and be carefree in hedonism, it is so easy to find yourself at the centre of this western Americana trip into the past before mediocrity and polarised arguments surrounded us.

With his debut studio LP currently in the works, the Houston-born, LA-based artist is definitively worth a spot on your radar.

I Remember Those Times is now available to stream on Spotify.

lyrics

Well I remember when
We could smoke in bars
I remember when
We could drink in our cars
I remember a time
We painted the town red
I remember those times
Better off than dead
Better off here playin than away in jail
Better off straight living than a will to fail
Better off
I remember those times
I remember those times
At the campground at dawn
I remember the times
We rolled on the lawn
I remember the times
We spent with nothing said
I remember those times
Better off than dead
Better off here playin than away in jail
Better off straight living than a will to fail
Better off
I remember those times
I remember when
Ehe world was mine
I could play in the street
And not get a fine
I remember those days
We just laid in bed
I remember those days
Better off than dead
Better off here playin than away in jail
Better off straight living than a will to fail
Better off
I remember those times
I remember that dawn
You slipped outa site
I searched and i searched
But it just wasn't right
I remember your smile
Like a ghost in my head
I remember your touch
Better off than dead
Better off here playin than away in jail
Better off straight living than a will to fail
Better off
I remember those times
Better off here playin than away in jail
Better off straight living than a will to fail
Better off
I remember those times
Better off
I remember those times
Better off
I remember those times
