Goodbye Goldie, 2015
Written by Logan Staats
This is an acoustic ballad in the style of Josh Ritter. The lyrics depict an empty and broken town, where vampires and werewolves come out for love and lust. Similarly, the narrator's heart is similarly torn: "Please, darling, take mercy on my broken heart, yeah / And take my soul if you want what's left of it." I like the sentiment and the urgent, soulful delivery, but I can't help but wish Statts had written more complex lines, and more of them: the song is just pre-chorus, one verse, and chorus, then repeated.
