Remember

## Single by Tyler Shaw

"**Remember'**" is a song by Tyler Shaw, released on August 14, 2020, as the lead single and track from his eponymous third studio album, *Tyler Shaw* (2021). It was co-written and producer by Shaw, Frank Walker, and Nick Henriques. The official music video was directed by The Young Astronauts. The official remix, done by Madism, also had its own music video.

## Background

Shaw explained the creation process to *CelebMix*, "The vibe was set by the guitar riff I created which you hear in the intro, which I brought as an idea into the session. We built the song around that. Immediately, everyone in the studio fed off one another's energy and we decided to write about focusing on the best moments in your life to help get you through the tough times. It was written pre-COVID but I think it really resonates, lyrically, with where we're all at."

He added about the music video, "The music video was a blast to film, given the circumstances and restrictions. We wanted to create a strong performance video with energetic lights and a fun atmosphere. My team had brought the concept to me and I was hooked on the simplicity and energy of it. Both the original and remix video were shot in the same day on the same location! We mixed a gritty, abandoned warehouse with a bright light show to personify the lyrics of the song and finding your way out of dark times in order to celebrate the good times life has to offer."

## Lyrics

**Lyrics**
[Verse 1]

Many times you have threatened me that you are leaving

Saying something like you're lost, you don't believe in us

I beg to differ, 'cause right here in this moment

You contradict yourself

[Pre-Chorus]

Think back to when the days didn't feel so short

Sitting with the sun, anything could have happened

Dancing with the stars while I hold you close

Now I read the stories we used to imagine

[Chorus]

Remember what it feels like

When you're down, and there's no one left around, baby

Remember what it feels like

Late at night, remember what it feels like

[Verse 2]

You are always back and forth between emotions

Calling me then hanging up

Which would you rather have?

Every time that you're alone, yeah, you need me there

Yeah, you need me there

[Pre-Chorus]

Think back to when the days didn't feel so short

Sitting with the sun, anything could've happened

Dancing with the stars while I hold you close

Now I read the stories we used to imagine

[Chorus]

Remember what it feels like

When you're down, and there's no one left around baby

Remember what it feels like

Late at night, when we're lying side by side

Remember what it feels like

When you're down, and there's no one left around baby

Remember what it feels like

Remember what it feels like

[Bridge]

Remember what it feels like

Remember what it feels like...

[Chorus]

Remember what it feels like

When you're down, and there's no one left around baby

Remember what it feels like

Late at night, when we're lying side by side
