Background

"CRZY" is a song that reflects on the end of a relationship, where the narrator stays home and the other person leaves for college. [3] [4] The song was originally released in September 2023 as an instant gratification track for Smith's self-titled album, alongside "Fixer Upper". [5] Smith called both tracks "authentic to his story". [6] [7] He noted that with "CRZY", it was "important to have those traditional influences on me represented in song and production and the instruments used." [8]

Critical reception

An uncredited review from Front Porch Music noted the use of "poignant lyrics and soul-stirring melody" in the song. [9]

Live performance

In January 2024, Smith released a video of "CRZY" live from a concert at CNOOC Field House at MacDonald Island Park in Fort McMurray, Alberta, on YouTube. [10] The video was filmed by Justin Clough. [4]

Music videos

Smith released a lyric video for "CRZY" on September 29, 2023, the day of its release to digital retailers. [11] Shortly ahead of "CRZY" becoming a single to country radio, Smith released an acoustic performance video on September 3, 2024. [12]
