“I Had No Idea It Would Change My Life Forever” – Zach Bryan Shares His Gratitude On The Second Anniversary Of “Burn, Burn, Burn”

Two years of "Burn, Burn, Burn" In 2022, Zach Bryan released the fan-favorite single "Burn, Burn, Burn," which directly followed "Something In The Orange," his first true radio hit. The RIAA-certified gold single is not only a massive fan favorite but also holds a very special place in the Oklahoma native's heart. ZB spoke out to fans when the single received the RIAA honor in 2023, noting that he would "never take it for granted." The single, which was used for the name of his last tour, turned two years old yesterday, September 8th, and Zach Bryan took to social media to share how grateful he is for the single that changed his life. "Two years ago, I released this. I didn’t know any of the words in Ottawa and I had no idea it would change my life forever. By the end, everyone was clapping, and I bawled like a baby. My favorite moment of being a musician in my entire life. Here’s to two years of 'Burn, Burn Burn.'" https://twitter.com/zachlanebryan/status/1833003865634947335 ZB has been very open with fans during this Twitter question and answer session, and "Burn, Burn, Burn" is one of his favorite songs. Earlier this year, he told fans the words for the song "fell outta" him when he sat down for a writing session. A phrase from the American poet and novelist Jack Kerouac inspired the song. More specifically, the whole song was inspired by one specific passage from his novel On the Road. “The only people for me are the mad ones, the ones who are mad to live, mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time, the ones who never yawn or saw a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn like fabulous yellow roman candles exploding like spiders across the stars.” https://twitter.com/zachlanebryan/status/1750586496665686085?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1750586496665686085%7Ctwgr%5E7ee7e555ad6144fe08e0d727338a0d6178d6a5cc%7Ctwcon%5Es1_&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.whiskeyriff.com%2F2024%2F01%2F25%2Fzach-bryan-says-burn-burn-burn-is-the-song-hes-written-that-means-the-most-to-him%2F "Burn, Burn, Burn" is truly a timeless single as ZB sings the words of a man wishing for a simple life, wanting to escape from the demands and pressures of society. Through the repeated verse at the end of the song: "So let me go down the line I wanna feel it all Joy, pain, and sky So let me go down the line We all burn, burn, burn and then die..." Highlights the message that it's important to chase these feelings if you have them because, eventually, we will be old, and life will end, so it's crucial to live a fulfilling life. The message of this song is powerful and has quickly resonated with fans since its release. Cheers to two years of "Burn, Burn, Burn" and to its continued love for many more to come. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gXL-ph_w1jA
