"Burn Out This Flame" Official Single & Lyric Video Release
Rebecca Day's group The Crazy Daysies release their latest studio-produced single tackling heartache and learning how to fight your way back to the light
I am thrilled to premiere by group’s latest single, “Burn Out This Flame” right here on Classically Cultured before anywhere else. This is the first exclusive release of its kind for us, and one that I hope marks the start of many more.
There are a few reasons why I decided to debut our single and official lyric video exclusively on Substack before making it available on social media and streaming platforms. Not only does the Substack platform champion freedom of speech and freedom of the press, two principles I have long been passionate about, but Substack’s staff also supports independent artists like myself, who prefer artistic freedom to corporate musicianhood, even if it means remaining in the trenches and never making it to the castle.
“Burn Out This Flame” is a bluesy power ballad focused on the honest portrayal of heartbreak, of being in a relationship that is no good for you and thinking your way to better days.
It’s not only a story about a heart yearning for peace, but about becoming your own peace and striving towards the light once more.
It contains a bit of a Dickinson-style twist at the end, a cherished technique my writer-poet mother Kay Day taught me when I was growing up and would ask her (on many occasions) for pointers on ways I could develop my writing.
I hope you are able to take a break today, and take a few quiet minutes to listen to the tune. And if you dig it, I’d love for you to give it a share with anyone you think it might resonate with. As an independent artist with an independent band, every little bit is so appreciated and mightily helps.
Without further ado… check out the official single release and lyric video to “Burn Out This Flame” below, featuring my viola-playing sister, Jennifer Day Thompson, fellow founding member of our swampy, country-blues group, The Crazy Daysies.
