David Ramirez: “The Bad Days” (2013)
This is pretty honest stuff. A love song about the nuts-and-bolts, every day slog that love usually ends up being. How rare is a song that, rather than taking the tact of idealizing love, incorporates it into the fabric of mundane, un-ideal everyday existence…
David Ramirez has realistic expectations–just a determined hope that there’s more pretty than gritty to it all. It isn’t what we’re used to in a love song. It almost rings too true.
Rob Montague’s video is every bit as honest and slice-of-life as the song’s sentiments–a perfect tact to take here.
