Heartache causes ripples throughout your life. So, you rearrange the past to make easier to swallow. With her new song “Remembering It Wrong,” Jordana Bryant pulls in the reins for a sensitive, sweeping ballad that finds her exposing her every brutally snapped heartstring. “Am I remembering it wrong?” she ponders in the chorus.
The details remain (intentionally) fuzzy. By her own admission, she admits that “sometimes, after a breakup, people rewrite the story to make it easier to move on—but that doesn’t mean your love wasn’t real,” Bryant says in a press statement. “[This song] is about those moments of doubt and the strength that comes from trusting what you know in your heart.”
In the second verse, she confirms that she’s been “forgettin'” the time she had with her ex. “Is it you or is it me that’s been forgettin’?” she asks. “There’s no way you spent six whole months pretendin’ / Now you got me questionin’ our history / Whole thing’s a mystery to me.” The instruments behind her cry in unison, punctuating her emotional journey, even if she still holds onto her ex’s photograph by the end.
