about
"Bedford Oak" is a single released by Zach Russack on April 1, 2021 - over three years following "The Common Cold" EP release. Strongly delving from influences such as Sufjan Stevens, Andy Shauf, and Elliott Smith, Russack brings home the familiarities of a broken relationship, affirming an affair that inevitably pulls the two protagonists apart. This haunting track was collaboratively recorded between Zach Russack (guitars / vocals) and Mike Johnson (synthesizers). Developed during the COVID-19 pandemic, Russack, Johnson and Josh Welshman (mix / master engineer) were able to remotely complete this single out of their respective locations:
Hackettstown, NJ (Russack)
Asheville, NC (Johnson)
Mt. Vernon, WA (Welshman)
This stand-alone single is available for purchase / download on Spotify, iTunes, Apple Music, Bandcamp, and other streaming platforms.
lyrics
Lyrics:
Where were you when I saw you standing out there
on the corner of Madison and View?
Were you there with him again? Walking home
until the darkness came and I was new?
Did you kiss him under that tree?
Or was that just a memory to me?
You said that it was never meant to be.
It doesn’t matter now.
Where were you when you wrote to me saying you were through with me and
my simple point of view?
Where you out drinking again, calling me,
and pleading once again to be with you?
You said you never kissed under that tree.
So I guess it’s just another memory to me.
Guess you two aren’t meant to be, but
you said that you were home,
but I am home.
You said that he’s at home,
but he’s going out tonight.
I was right.
