“Bad Memory” by Michelle Raybourn is a tender and respectful breakup song that gently unpacks the bittersweet emotions of letting go. With poetic grace, Michelle plays on the phrase “bad memory” — not just wishing to forget the pain, but also realizing that all the memories that remain are actually the good ones.
Set against a rich, emotional backdrop, the pedal steel guitar brings a classic country feel, while the keys add warmth and emotional depth to the arrangement. It’s a song for anyone reflecting on a past love with both longing and gratitude — where heartbreak meets healing.
A graceful farewell set to music.
