Bory – “We Both Won”
Bory, aka Brenden Ramirez, is one of many rising power-pop acts who’ve teamed with his fellow Portland resident Mo Troper in recent years. Troper produced Ramirez’s debut Bory album Who’s A Good Boy, out in December, and today the lead single is out. “We Both Won” combines jangly guitars, a sprightly tempo, and Ramirez’s moonbeam vocals into as pleasant a little tune as you could wish for. The arpeggiated riff that kicks in after the chorus is gold. As for the lyrical content, “We Both Won” seems to be a post-breakup kiss-off. Opening lyrics: “Don’t take this the wrong way/ But we’re all good/ You might feel guilty/ At least you should.” Listen below.
