“Gone” is a serene track from Kevin Kaho Tsui, exuding a twinkling dream-pop tone. Lush acoustics and twangy guitars adorn the verses. This twang becomes more prominent during the gorgeous build-up, featuring emotive and halted vocals. “Gone” is a beautiful-sounding effort from this talented singer/songwriter.
“‘Gone’ was written when I was traveling alone in Japan a year ago,” the artist writes. “I was really into Cigarettes After Sex & few other dream pop and ambient pop bands at the time and I wanted to talk about my feelings in a mellow and lonely tone.”
