Gone (Bebe Rexha song)
"Gone" is a song by American singer Bebe Rexha. It was released on December 19, 2014.[1] The song tells of the singer lamenting a past love. The chorus contains the lyrics "'Cause I'm a lost river that'll never reach the sea / When you're not here with me, when you're gone / I'm sick to my bones, I don't feel natural / Without you I'm not whole, when you're gone." In Australia, the song was used in television advertisements promoting the drama series Love Child on the Nine Network.[2] BackgroundFollowing appearances on albums by Pitbull (Globalization) and David Guetta (Listen),[3] Rexha worked on a follow-up to her debut solo single "I Can't Stop Drinking About You", released earlier in 2014. On December 19, Rexha released two singles, "I'm Gonna Show You Crazy" and "Gone".[4] "Gone" is described as "a tender, piano and string-filled ballad and was produced and co-written by Frequency and Aalias, the same team behind Eminem's 'The Monster'."[5] ReviewLuis Gonzalez of Album Confessions said; "'Gone' succeeds thanks to the stripped back production, Rexha's impressive delivery and a touching, heartbreaking message of lost love. The perfect blend of soft strings and piano turn out to be the right fit for a sure-to-be-critically-acclaimed performance. It is a delicate ballad tailored for Top 40 radio and one that screams for attention for all the right reasons."[6] Charts
