An intense R&B pop song with a powerful beat and memorable melodies, “USED TO” by VeeAlwaysHere is a great track about trying to prove that you’re a different person than you used to be. Whether you’re trying to show your growth to an old flame, a family member, or even to yourself, this track will be relatable and meaningful to anyone who has realized they’ve gone through a significant change.
A crisp and catchy vocal performance is the highlight of this song. VeeAlwaysHere sings tight to the beat, delivering smooth melodies that hit your ear exactly right every time. Deep synth sweeps heighten the tension of the track, and the drum-less pre-chorus helps the beat drop in the chorus have a satisfying impact.
A particularly cool moment happens at the beginning of each chorus when VeeAlwaysHere sings the line “you’ve been waiting.” After this line, the production suspends for a moment and there’s a beat of silence before everything comes back in. This attention to detail of making the listener wait, just like the subject of the song, shows the meticulous creativity that VeeAlwaysHere puts into his music.
The full production and catchy melodies perfectly move the song from section to section, which allows you to sink into the track and really identify with the story. It’s difficult to realize you’ve changed, but this song reminds us “we can’t take it back.” Even if you don’t know what you’re doing, and VeeAlwaysHere sings here that he doesn’t either, this track is a reminder that it’s still important to accept you might not be as you used to.
