Die From a Broken Heart

Die From a Broken Heart

Maddie & Tae

“Die From a Broken Heart” is a country ballad released as a single by country woman group Maddie & Tae.

The song is very personal to both Maddie Marlow and Taylor Dye. When speaking to People Magazine, Taylor said,

We released this song, and while we were talking about it, no one knew what I was going through when we wrote it because I hadn’t really expressed that. I hadn’t told anyone that, hey, this was really hard for me. Everyone was being so vulnerable and sharing their stories, and I felt like I should give them the same respect.

The song describes an imaginary call the two give to their mothers after a particularly bad break up with their partners. They seek solace in their mothers and ask her at the end of the call if you can “Die From a Broken Heart.”

But perhaps the most important part of this song to the two ladies is the music video, in the same interview with People, Taylor said that “she cried real tears for the camera” and that she “always had a [passion] for acting”.
