You are in Upper East Side Manhattan, a little bit drunk after leaving the bar. Carly King’s folky ballad, so tender and slowly paced, starts playing on the cab ride over to your hotel room. The sound immediately draws you in and makes you a main character in the story. It’s so organic that it sounds just like the story you are living right at this moment. The song feels like it’s being performed right there in the cab with you, and the simple piano and fingerpicked guitar are the perfect backdrop for the raw lyricism that unfolds over the next almost three minutes. “Three Martinis” has storytelling lyrics that will pull you in and make you wonder who Carly King is, how she is similar to you, and where you can hear more of her tender ballads. Dive in!
