Song Review/ Alt Folk : Nick Cody and The Heartache’s ‘The World’s Richest Man’
Nick Cody and The Heartache have just released their latest, ‘The World’s Richest Man’, a track that dotes on the riches of being human. It is a moving composition that draws out the value of joy, kindness, compassion and empathy and how they trump money in a completion of richness.
The track is made with warm acoustics, a contemplative rhythm weaving them together in a dispersed and intuitive fashion. And the vocals are so evocative. They pull you out into it, naturally flowing and exploring the feeling. Nick Cody has no formula to it, just his ties to the theme, delivered in a way that carries the listener from a place of frivolity to deep, profound meaning. A swirling sense of purpose takes form, shows you the value of a standard that was meant for us as a humanity. Listen Now!
