The track is from his two-track release Demo Derby 05
Endlessly thoughtful and packed full of a nuanced, soft appeal, Elihu Okay‘s single ‘Good Time’ is a reflective track that sees the artist taking a look at some of his shortcomings and the way that the affect the people around him in sobering and candid fashion.
The stripped-back and emotionally rousing feel of the track goes along way towards giving this kind of intimate and stirring appeal, as she delves into his relationships and the ways that small things can often tip the balance of how things are. One of these things is the heat that the artist struggles to deal with, making him feel agitated and leading to him making mistakes or having less patience that he would like. It is a small thing but it is something that feel inherently human and real, and to recognise your flaws in such an articulate and honest way makes for a compelling listen that has a real ring of authenticity to it.
