My version of Up Down was different from the original version from my past world, mainly because while the original version was extremely country oriented, my version was much more rock oriented.
Even though I liked some of the country songs, that style was very niche because it was also much more interesting to older people than the young audience I've been cultivating since the beginning.
Of course, I know there are a lot of young people who like country music, especially in the South, but I already had my own version of a very successful country song, "A Bar Song," so I didn't need another one.
So I changed the rhythm of "Up Down" to something more rock-oriented to try to make it a more general and universal version, something that not only the southern part of the country would really appreciate, but anyone listening around the world would like.
