[otw_shortcode_dropcap label=”“K” size=”large” border_color_class=”otw-no-border-color” shadow=”shadow” square=”square”]id, you don’t know what you got / Real life sucks in 3-D,” Kentucky-bred, Los Angeles-based musician Chaz Cardigan sings, adding, “This is the end, what’s your hurry? / I used to care so deep.” Those awesome lyrics hail from Cardigan’s first release of 2024, “Used to Care”. Those marvelous lyrics are only a snippet of the sheer excellence that is “Used to Care.” Cardigan put his foot in this one![/otw_shortcode_dropcap]
“Used to Care” thrives for a variety of reasons. First and foremost, it’s Chaz Cardigan! Chaz serves up a mean brand of vocals – clear, commanding, and expressive. Besides putting in work on tuneful melodies, his riffs and ad-libs are fabulous to the nth degree. As already mentioned, the songwriting – the lyrics – are a sight to behold. Well, a sight to hear… ear-catching! There’s never a dull moment between “Tasted it all on my tongue blood and cum and caffeine / Everybody’s a TV show,” and of course the chorus: “Now I can’t think / So I just stopped trying / And when I can’t sleep / At least, baby / You’re not on my mind.” Word! The final piece of the pie that makes “Used to Care” a surefire vibe? The production! It’s busy, but the rhythmic, dynamic nature of the instrumental provides fuel for Cardigan’s fire. While Cardigan may not care so deep, we care a lot about you, Chaz, and this fine musical offering, “Used to Care”.
