“All I Forgot” – Ashley Cooke ft. Joe Jonas
In a striking blend of country soul and pop flair, powerhouse artist Ashley Cooke collaborates with global sensation Joe Jonas to present "All I Forgot" – a memorable anthem of heartbreak that conveys the pain of memories that persist, no matter how hard one tries to forget them. With moving lyrics, rich production, and a duet filled with genuine emotion, this song is set to take over both country and pop charts.

From the very first striking strum of the guitar, “All I Forgot” introduces a poignant ballad steeped in late-night regrets. Produced by Joey Moi and Charlie Puth, the song skillfully merges the inviting sound of country instruments with the sleek vibes of modern pop. Ambient synths and rich rhythms swirl beneath Cooke and Jonas’ intertwined melodies, crafting a backdrop that feels both personal and cinematic.
Lyrically, the song poignantly reverses the traditional “drinking to forget” narrative. Cooke begins with a heartfelt admission that her attempts to erase the pain of heartbreak through drinks only sharpen the memories. Her soulful rendition of the chorus resonates with anyone who's ever tried to suppress emotions, only to have them resurface:
‘Cause I just killed a bottle
And all that I forgot
Was I was moving on,
I was staying strong
I’ll feel it tomorrow
‘Cause all that I forgot
was everyone except for you
That ain’t what this
drink’s supposed to do
All I forgot was
everything except for you
Jonas enters in the second verse, echoing Cooke’s sorrow with a touch of pop elegance. His smooth vocals introduce a layer of vulnerability as he confesses that each sip only heightens his desire. The chemistry between Cooke’s country warmth and Jonas’ pop polish creates a duet that resembles a dialogue between two souls caught in the same cycle of heartache, drink, repeat. The bridge underscores this sentiment, with Cooke admitting:
I swear every time
it’s gonna be foolproof
By the end of the night,
it’s tunnel vision, you.
Beyond its emotional depth, "All I Forgot" gains from the star power of its collaborators. Ashley Cooke's ascent in the country music scene has been nothing short of remarkable. Following the success of her debut album, Shot in the Dark, she has received honors like MusicRow’s Discovery Artist of the Year, Billboard’s Rookie of the Month, and a CMT Award for Breakthrough Female Video of the Year. With her first No. 1 single "Your Place" gaining traction on country radio, Cooke has solidified her status as a leading voice in contemporary country music.
On the other side of the collaboration is Joe Jonas, whose career encompasses fame with the Jonas Brothers and solo accomplishments in pop and rock. His entry into the country pop scene might surprise some, yet his contribution to “All I Forgot” feels entirely authentic. Jonas’ emotive performance enriches the song, displaying his versatility as an artist and illustrating that his talents extend beyond the pop genre.
The production, managed by Joey Moi – renowned for his work with Morgan Wallen and Florida Georgia Line – along with Charlie Puth, effectively connects country and pop. This results in a track that appeals to fans of both genres, with enough emotional weight to linger long after the last note fades. The layered harmonies, dynamic instrumentation, and polished mix make “All I Forgot” a song that begs for prolonged listening, whether nursing heartbreak or simply savoring a beautifully crafted duet.
