Everything that glitters isn’t gold, including love.
Langston Bleu learns a tough lesson through heartbreak in his latest single, “Fool’s Gold.” Written in collaboration with country star Brittany Spencer, the single poetically explores what it feels like to have your feelings and emotions trampled by someone who doesn’t truly respect you or the love you have to offer.
“I liked thinking that you were mine. I liked sleeping in your bed of lies. Now, I find a better way to waste my time. I never would have shown my hand if you weren’t going to play the part,” Langston Bleu sings.
“Oh, baby, I was hoping this was love and not another lesson. Oh, baby, I was open. I guess my heart never got the message.”
Not only does the writing elevate the song, but “Fool’s Gold” is also one of Langston Bleu’s most attention grabbing vocal performances. The emerging vocalist seemingly floats between the softer delivery of the verses before peaking with power during each performance of the chorus.
“Was this all a game for you?” Bleu’s voice crescendoes.
With the performance of Langston Bleu and the contributions of Brittany Spencer, “Fool’s Gold” stands out as one of the strongest singles and signals the start of a new chapter in the singer’s evolving career.
