Forrest Hill strikes a chord of hope in soulful single “Can’t Wait For A Savior”
San Francisco Bay Area artist Forrest Hill has a timely and moving message in his new single, “Can’t Wait For A Savior.” It’s about staying close to the ground. Hill, who has a rough voice and brutal honesty, reflects on his experiences with current events and the hushed revolution that begins within. “Can’t Wait For A Savior” isn’t Hill’s first go-round with significant music, the Boston-based funk-rock band Judy’s Tiny Head, in which he sang, and his experiments in songwriting, have shown that he knows how notable concepts to weave around a sharp melody.
On “Can’t Wait For A Savior,” Hill turns internally and belts out a track that sounds like it was written in the soft quiet of a long, restless evening but was also played to the ears of anyone who wants a sign. The opening energy of the song is understated. He leaves just enough warmth and structure to enable space for the words to pierce. Hill does not hurry with the words but gives them ample time to unravel with a degree of commitment and lucidity that only age can offer. There is no boasting here, no over-polished production. He is just a songwriter who has grown comfortable with laying his soul out in the wild. “Can’t Wait For A Savior” reveals resurgent strength.
Taking to the limit the idea that some white knight would rescue us in our period of need, Hill implies that everything must come from within. As politics attacks us, his invitation to personal accountability and peaceful commitment is optimistic and calm extreme. Yet the emotional characteristics of the song are most important. Hill isn’t lecturing but empathizing. The harmonies are infused, and the rhythms are measured. This is music made for those who think and feel deeply. Sometimes, the most effective songs are those that do not seek to save us but to shake us into life.
