A knowing saxophone and Hadley's dismissive "ahh's" join the drum for a solo.
He repeats the last two lyrics of the second verse.
"My love is like a high prison wall/And you could leave me standing so tall, all."
The chorus is sung once to end the single.
In "Gold." Hadley's childish need to prove that he's superior to his ex-girlfriend is spiteful. He's condescending and rude as he gives her unsolicited advice about her life.
The music arrangement is hammy and made worse by Hadley's glory noting. If Hadley is not hanging onto one monotonous note, he's plowing through the lyrics. His vocals, while bland, are beefy. In a better song, he could really showcase his range.
"Gold" is not smart enough to be camp or bad enough to be somewhat entertaining. It's downright awful.
