GONE, GONE / THANK YOU

GONE, GONE / THANK YOU is a two-part track and acts as the emotional turning point. In GONE, GONE, Igor reflects on the relationship, acknowledging its end and finding a semblance of peace and gratitude. In THANK YOU, Igor expresses thanks but also the pain and reluctance toward future love. This track marks the true beginning of moving on and shows both sides of heartbreak—the peace and the sadness.

GONE, GONE / THANK YOU expresses nostalgia, acceptance, and gratitude, but also sadness and fear of future love.

GONE, GONE:

• "My love's gone": A simple, direct statement of the relationship's end—for real this time.
• "At least I had it / Instead of never": Igor finds gratitude for the experience, despite the pain.
• "I know love is all I got / I just hope to God she got good taste / Could put you on some shit you never seen / Could play a couple songs that you could dance to / I hope you know she can't compete with me": Igor offers a surprisingly mature take on the love interest's girlfriend. He wishes her well—as long as she makes the love interest happy.
• "You never lived in your truth, I'm just happy I lived in it / But I finally found peace, so peace": Igor acknowledges that the love interest still hides his true self, but he is able to move on and find his own peace.

THANK YOU:

• "Thank you for the love, thank you for the joy / But I will never want to fall in love again": Expresses gratitude, but also the deep scar left by the relationship.
• "Got my eyes open": Revisits the recurring theme of clarity, tying back to IGOR'S THEME and WHAT'S GOOD.

• GONE, GONE has a brighter, more melodic, and somewhat wistful feel. Background vocals by CeeLo Green and La Roux add a soulful, melancholic pop sensibility, similar to EARFQUAKE, representing the positive side of heartbreak and moving on.
• As the beat switches to THANK YOU, the tone shifts to something more somber, reflecting the inevitable sadness of heartbreak.
• The track relies on primarily acoustic-sounding instruments instead of electronic ones, showing genuine emotion and clarity—contrasting with the disingenuous persona of WHAT'S GOOD or the rage in NEW MAGIC WAND.
