About this song
Livin' on Borrowed Time is an outlaw country song by Breaking Rust, the AI project that Digital Music News describes as credited to songwriter Aubierre Rivaldo Taylor rather than to any real person or band. Spotify lists it as a one-track single released on 14 October 2025 with a ℗ line in the act's own name, which makes it a self-release, and it reappears as the opening track of the five-song Resilient EP three days later. Digital Music News reported in early November 2025 that it was one of the two charting songs, with Walk My Walk, behind the project's number 9 debut on Billboard's Emerging Artists chart on 1.6 million official streams, at a time when Breaking Rust had over 2 million monthly listeners on Spotify. The visualizer on the act's own YouTube channel, posted in November 2025, had 4.4 million views by 29 September 2026, when the Spotify track showed about 32.1 million plays, the most of any Breaking Rust recording.
