Demo of the Week: “Where It Hurts”
Writers: Ryan Harris, Thomas Archer
Vibe: A confession to heartache that’s more banging-on-the-steering-wheel than yielding to tears
Key lyrics: “This is what it feels like / colder than a winter night / heartache coming on / where did our love go / Woah, this is where it ends / This is where it hurts”
Could be a good fit for: Thomas Rhett, Randy Houser, Jason Aldean, Cole Swindell
X factor: Mid-tempo and melodically reaching while hitting on the topic of heartache
