John Morgan’s first radio single, ‘Friends Like That,’ is a collaboration with Jason Aldean, a song that delves into the contradicting state of being alone yet surrounded by friends. Co-written by Will Bundy, Lydia Vaughan, and Brent Anderson, the song began with a mysterious guitar riff that served as the basis for the pre-chorus and set the tone for the rest of the song. The writers were drawn to the title ‘Friends Like That,’ which emerged during the writing process, and it became clear they were crafting a breakup song with an introspective twist. The song’s conversations take place in front of a fire at home, with the singer confiding in his vices (music and alcohol) and emphasizing his self-sufficiency. However, the lyrics reveal a brooding outlook and self-deception beneath the surface. Aldean’s addition to the track provides a promotional incentive and adds subtle melodic changes, contributing to its overall appeal.
