Ghost (Lost Kings Remix)
DAY 7
"Ghost (Lost Kings Remix)"
by Halsey (feat. Lost Kings)
This is an older song of Halsey's, originally off her first studio album, Badlands. I think the original song it just okay; the lyrics are great, but the original music and melody didn't really jump out at me. The original is just a little too slow and haunting, and the pace of the lyrics lends itself to a faster-paced, more upbeat song. Lost Kings managed to pair it with a remixed beat and increased tempo that I think fits the song much better.
One of the main reasons why I listened to thing song so much this year is that both of my kids, for reasons that are a mystery to me, absolutely love this song. Like, to the point of, "Dad, can you play it again?" while we're in the car driving somewhere. It's adorable to see both of my kids trying to repeat after the lyrics but not quite get all of them so they just kind of trail off halfway through a verse.
I'm a big fan of Halsey; it was fun to have a little flashback this year to some of her earlier work.
