About “Something In The Orange”
Zach Bryan released “Something In The Orange” on his 2022 studio album, American Heartbreak. He actually released two versions of the track: the original single version and an alternate version featuring just his vocals and piano. “Something In The Orange” was Bryan’s first entry on the Billboard Hot 100, debuting on the chart on May 7, 2022. It eventually reached a peak position of number ten.
While the song explores themes of longing and heartache, it was actually inspired by a beautiful sunset Bryan once saw.
“Everyone thinks it was over some deep, dark thing, and it was just me in a cabin in Wisconsin,” Bryan once shared. “I thought about the word ‘orange’ and I was watching the sunset and I was like, ‘Oh, that’s a cool story to tell in a song.'”
Additionally, the success of “Something In The Orange” propelled Bryan to the number one spot on the Billboard Top Songwriters chart in mid-2022. The song was later certified Platinum in July 2023.
