Ryan Mack, Did You Love Me Ever? | Track Review 🎵

Pop singer/songwriter Ryan Mack shines on his relatable and vulnerable single, “Did You Love Me Ever?”

Love can be heaven or love can be hell.  For the talented 🎙 Ryan Mack, on 🎵 “Did You Love Me Ever?”, the hellish side of the four-letter word gets the nod.  Singing with incredible authenticity and a gorgeous voice, Mack showcases his vulnerable side.  Even though he puts himself out there, his vulnerability is hella relatable from start to finish – we’ve been there Ryan! “I tried to love again / But it never felt right, it faded in the end,” he asserts in the first verse, following up with “I can’t believe it’s over / You’re gone, gone, gone.” Yes, his ex has him feeling some type of way. Of course, in the second verse, it’s more of the same where moving on is not possible.  Furthermore, in the second pre-chorus, he sings, “When I need someone new / I still see you.” Oh, what a bummer, especially for such a handsome, gifted man!

Of course, the centerpiece of this short but potent record occurs during the chorus:

“When you said, ‘Forever,’ I knew no better

Now looking back, was it all an act? Did you love me ever?

‘Cause every line and every note in every song I ever wrote

Won’t make it better if you loved me never.”

True, Ryan, true.  Besides great vocals, and the relatable and thoughtful songwriting, the sound and production (Mack and 🎛 Robert Grace) of  “Did You Love Me Ever?” is also worth mentioning.  The vocal production itself is alluring, while the keys scream reflection, sensitivity, and vulnerability.

Final Thoughts 💭 

Yes, love can be hell, and it is for Ryan Mack on 🎵 “Did You Love Me Ever?”, BUT, his pain is our listening pleasure.  “Did You Love Me Ever?” is two minutes and change of greatness.  Strong vocals, strong songwriting, and strong production that matches the theme and vibe of the song.  This earns my seal of approval!
