Stone Cold

Stone Cold is the critically acclaimed third single off the album Confident, released on 9 October 2015. Unlike the previous two singles, it’s a tender ballad about wishing an ex the best in another relationship. Demi Lovato played the song for the first time live during her performance at the Highline Ballroom in New York on 29 September 2015. Demi Lovato told Complex in a 2015 interview that Stone Cold is her favorite song off of the album. “I want the Grammy committee to hear that song,” she said, “so that one day they can see that—I know that I’m capable of getting there.” According to Wikipedia, the song is soul and pop. It has been likened to her 2011 ballad Skyscraper, and Billboard writes that Lovato’s vocals put her “squarely in Adele mode”.
