Good Day Noir Family,
The guitar in Wasting May’s “Can You Tell?” is pure, unadulterated soul.
Can You Tell? is Wasting May’s Single Out Now
It’s as if you can feel the wood of the instrument and the very strings vibrate against your skin.
Then, Evelyn’s voice enters, delicate and ethereal, singing a siren song that’s strangely inviting, drawing you in with a gentle touch.
It evokes the image of autumn leaves swirling down in a slow dance, a melancholic beauty that sends shivers down your spine.
“Can You Tell?” is a deeply introspective song. The lyrics plumb the depths of emotion, exploring themes of nostalgia and bittersweet memories.
The melody itself is a slow crescendo, a carefully crafted journey that builds tension and sweetness in equal measure.
It’s a song that takes you by the hand, leads you to the edge of an emotional precipice, and then lets go – a moment of “libero arbitrio” (free will) where the listener is left to contemplate the weight of the song’s message.
Can You Tell? is Wasting May’s Single Out Now!
Magical!
