The Chainsmokers - Memories...do Not | Open -2017...

Arguably the most underrated track on the album. It strips back the bombast for a minute and actually lets Drew sing (with auto-croon) about the anxiety of success. “I’m sorry if I’m up and down a lot these days.” It’s vulnerable in a way the rest of the album is too polished to admit.

Lyrically, the album doesn't push boundaries. You’ll hear the word “these days” approximately 47 times. The guest spots (Jhene Aiko, Florida Georgia Line, Emily Warren) often feel like they are singing in a different room than the beat. The Chainsmokers - Memories...Do Not Open -2017...

If you hated it then? Nothing here will change your mind. But you can’t deny the impact. The Chainsmokers bottled a very specific, very messy feeling of young adulthood, slapped a sad title on it, and sold 1 million album-equivalent units. Arguably the most underrated track on the album
