The Los Angeles rock band Badflower’s powerful new single, “Ghost,” is a stunning first person account of the depths people go into that cause the ideas of suicide, come not from the media, but from the fans.
From the fan who calls it a “Once in a generation type song” to the several people, not one, not two, but several who say the song saved their life, “Ghost” has connected at the absolute core of where music hits fans.
In the song, frontman Josh Katz, writing from his own experiences with despair, sings, “I tried it once again and I think might black out/I shoulda left a letter but I had nothing to write about/My blood is all around me, I get dizzy if I stand up/The cutting part was easy, but regretting it is so f**ked.”
The record’s vulnerability has skyrocketed them to the top of the charts since the song was released. This song’s success is the perfect analogy that things will get better with time.
