[ve:v1.2.3]
[00:01.39]We used to be
[00:03.41]The life of the party
[00:05.90]Body to body
[00:07.66]Dance the night away
[00:09.65]Shoot tequila straight
[00:13.40]Obsessed with each other
[00:15.90]And down for another
[00:17.90]Round until last call
[00:20.16]Wasn't alcohol
[00:22.66]Keeping us up 'til the sun came around
[00:26.90]Thought we'd stay drunk forever, but
now
[00:31.40]You're the reason there's no whiskey anywhere inside this house
[00:35.90]You're the reason all my friends know I don't go downtown
[00:40.91]You're the reason I hate champagne, never used to turn it down
[00:46.15]You're the only thing I want when one drop hits my mouth
[00:51.40]But baby, you're the reason
[00:56.40]I quit drinking
[00:59.65]We used to be
[01:01.40]Dizzy all morning
[01:03.65]Hungover, pouring
[01:05.66]Cups of coffee
black
[01:07.90]Kiss and crawl right back
[01:11.41]Under the covers
[01:13.90]Down for another
[01:15.90]Hour in that bed
[01:18.40]Now, I'm here instead
[01:21.15]Waking up sober, it feels kind of nice
[01:25.15]Except that I can't sleep at night
[01:29.65]You're the reason there's no whiskey anywhere inside this house
[01:34.14]You're the reason all my friends know I don't go downtown
[01:39.15]You're the reason I hate champagne, never used to turn it
down
[01:44.15]You're the only thing I want when one drop hits my mouth
[01:49.64]Baby, you're the reason
[01:54.65]I quit drinking
[01:57.41]I quit thinking (I quit thinking)
[01:59.40]Staring at the ceiling (Ohh)
[02:02.40]And all my cabernet is down the kitchen sink, yeah (It's down the kitchen sink, yeah)
[02:07.16]I quit mixing (I quit mixing)
[02:09.65]All my drinks and feelings
[02:11.91]It's not fixing that you're gone
[02:14.66]You're the reason
there's no whiskey anywhere inside this house
[02:19.65]You're the reason all my friends know I don't go downtown
[02:24.40]You're the reason I hate champagne, never used to turn it down
[02:29.66]You're the only thing I want when one drop hits my mouth (The only thing I want, baby)
[02:35.14]Baby, you're the reason
[02:39.90]Ohh, you're the reason
[02:45.15]I quit drinking

"I Quit Drinking" is a song by American singer Kelsea Ballerini and American pop band LANY. It was released on June 9, 2021, via Black River Entertainment and Warner Chappell Music. Ballerini co-wrote the song with Nicolle Galyon and Paul Jason Klein, while Jimmy Robbins and Noah Conrad produced it.[2]
Background and content[edit]
Ballerini first performed the song with Paul Klein of pop group LANY at the 2021 CMT Music Awards. According to a press release, "I Quit Drinking" is a "break up anthem about quitting drinking" due to it "bring[ing] back too many memories of a past relationship".[3] A press release by Black River Entertainment mentioned the song "describe[s] a couple whose relationship was centered around being the life of the party. When the giddy romance fizzles out, it seems, so does the appeal of the booze."[4]
Critical reception[edit]
Rob Costa of Music Talkers praised the combination for doing "a great job painting a picture of reflection, relationships, sacrifice, and the reasons for getting sober. The work put into creating conversational lyrics has paid off here, making the lyrics a real highlight of the song."[5]
Music video[edit]
The music video was released on June 15, 2021, and directed by Blythe Thomas. The video was filmed in "the hills of California".[6] It shows Ballerini and Klein as "former lovers recalling happier times together" who can no longer "enjoy the taste of champagne, whiskey, or other alcoholic beverages now" due to it "remind[ing] them of their days as a couple".[7] Finally they sing face-to-face in a rainstorm.[8]
Commercial performance[edit]
"I Quit Drinking" debuted at number 30 on the Billboard Hot Country Songs chart dated June 26, 2021, after its release.[9]
