About “I Don’t Care “:
Reflecting on the pivotal moment of realization that a former heartbreak no longer affects you, Amanda Keeles’ latest single, “I Don’t Care”, is a raw and powerful ballad about finally letting go. Written years after experiencing heartbreak and betrayal, the song captures the exact moment Keeles realized she had moved on – when the pain, anger, and lingering feelings became emotionally irrelevant. Built on a haunting piano melody that Keeles composed herself, “I Don’t Care” blends heartfelt lyrics with a stirring arrangement, featuring an emotive performance from renowned pianist Keith Floen, and searing, bluesy guitar work by decorated guitarist, Bill Blayney. The track’s melancholic yet liberating tone is underscored by Keeles’ soaring vocal performance, embodying the strength that comes with true closure. With its deeply personal yet universally relatable theme, “I Don’t Care” is an anthem for anyone who has ever reached that moment of freedom – the realization that they are finally at peace. Through the song, Keeles delivers one of her most vulnerable and cathartic performances yet, proving once again her ability to transform personal experiences into music that resonates with listeners on a profound level.
