Thomas Day, Underwear | Song Review 🎵

Pop singer/songwriter Thomas Day wears his heart on his sleeve in his relatable, heartbroken single, “Underwear.”

[otw_shortcode_dropcap label=”“W” size=”large” border_color_class=”otw-no-border-color” shadow=”shadow” square=”square”]hat a thing to do.” Indeed, Thomas Day.  Day is heartbroken in his ballad, “Underwear”.  Despite its title, “Underwear” isn’t about undies, though undies are mentioned: “You left your underwear / But still bought another pair / Like you really had to / Did you have to?” Day and Noah Nockels composed the emotional song about an ex, who Thomas still has feelings for. Rudey produced it. Thomas sounds angelic as he bears his soul. “Why did you leave me there? / Why are you set on running out,” he asks, later asking, “Why you had to change your tone?” In the chorus, he’s dejected, as his ex encourages him to move on:[/otw_shortcode_dropcap]

“You wanted me to love somebody else

But I’m still in love with you

You wanted me to go and fuck myself

‘Cause I’d do anything for you.”

Bummer.  Beyond emotional lyrics and a strong vocal performance, Day is backed by lovely musical accompaniment.  The sound is rhythmic yet tender, complementing his hurt feelings.  Going back to the lyric excerpted above, “What a thing to do,” Day is hurt and angry that reconciliation isn’t a possibility.  It’s over whether he likes it or not.  “Underwear” is a winner. Heartbroken, but relatable.
