Today, Canadian songstress Devon Cole accepts that she can’t fall for the “Good Guy” on new single out now via RCA Records. Listen to the track HERE.
A flirty bass line and a funky guitar accompany Devon’s exploration into her questionable dating choices. She admits that while she doesn’t naturally go for the “safer” choice, she sometimes wishes she would. Devon elaborates,
“‘Good Guy’ is a song about wanting something that’s bad for you. Objectively, I know that dating emotionally unavailable men never ends well, but there’s something about the chase that I find really intoxicating. If I’m psychoanalyzing myself, I know that it has something to do with my upbringing. I fought for my dad’s attention growing up… so that’s what’s familiar to me – fighting for men’s attention. The second that someone isn’t into me… woof. I’m head over heels for them. I’m not saying that it’s a good thing – obviously, it’s problematic. Clearly, I need to do some work to unpack this situation. But I think it’s very relatable.”
“Good Guy” follows the success of Devon’s most recent friendship anthem, “I Got You,” which has helped her catalog surpass over 123 million streams. The single earned recognition from outlets like Prelude Press, Ones To Watch, and Melodic Mag, who described the song as “stepping into pure sunshine.”
In other recent news, the Calgary native just sank her boots into new territory and now resides in Los Angeles, California.
