The snare drum really drives the song to make it compelling and great to listen too.įrom the slightly upbeat song, “Hercules” we shift to a love song, “ Manhattan” this is possibly one of my favorite slow songs from her work in general. Her lyrics simply state that she is just trying to figure out what she really wants but she can’t be good at everything, so she figuring everything out by herself. We go from “Chasing the Sun” to one of my favorite songs on the album, “ Hercules.” This song is another type of motivational track about trying to become strong and acknowledging her weaknesses. This track can be a perfect “cry about your break up” or just a regular road trip song. This song is a great example of how versatile Sara’s music really is. Then we transition from “Brave” into “ Chasing the Sun.” “Chasing the Sun” starts off slow and continues to be slow until it reaches a vibrant chorus, and she starts to overcome and tells herself to stop wasting time, and her audience to stop wasting time. Regardless, being brave only really has one meaning: to be able to face your fears. She says the song was about telling her friend to be brave about coming out but in the music video she made it about being ambitious. It starts with a stiff snare drum (she really utilizes the snare throughout this whole album). This is a perfect “feel good” song and one of those motivational type songs. The album starts off with “ Brave,” her single that she released as the prelude to her album. I would like to walk you throughout The Blessed Unrest so you can understand how phenomenal this album is and really understand what I mean. Her music is so adaptable to any situation that it makes the music even better. She is the perfect person to listen to whether you are going through a break up, an empowering yoga retreat, or just hanging out. Now, I am not sure how many ways I can tell you all how much I enjoy this album. She is unpredictable and so pure that it is soothing.
When you think she is going to go lower on a note, she goes to a higher one. She is soulful, and her lyrics just tug at your heartstrings.
After sitting down and finally listening to the Sara Bareilles‘ new album, I finally came to the conclusion that she is a wonderful artist.
