Drown Your Heartaches with Robert Ross’ “Drink Em Down”

“Drink Em Down,” the latest single from Canadian/Australian country artist Robert Ross, is a raw, emotionally charged anthem that taps into the classic country tradition of drowning heartache in a glass. Co-written with the acclaimed Canadian artist and producer Gil Grand, this track offers a fresh yet familiar take on the themes of loss, betrayal, and the numbing solace found in a bottle.

The lyrics paint a vivid picture of a man reeling from heartbreak, returning home to discover his partner with another man. Ross’s vocal delivery is steeped in authenticity, capturing the pain and confusion of the moment. The chorus, with its repetition of “Drink em down,” serves as both a cathartic release and a resigned acceptance of his situation, underscored by a melody that lingers long after the song ends.

What stands out most in “Drink Em Down” is Ross’s ability to evoke a sense of universality in his personal pain. The song’s relatability is its strength—it’s easy to imagine countless others nursing similar wounds, finding comfort in the ritual of “setting em up and drinking em down.”
