Noah Kahan on why “Pain Is Cold Water” isn’t on his new album: "I love that song…When we started recording for the album, I was like, ‘Oh, this is a slam dunk. I already have half the song.' And I just kept going back to it and feeling like I was just finishing it, just to finish it. But I didn’t feel like there was any more story to be told."
