LISTEN
Wishgarden’s “Listen” is a love letter to finding inner peace through difficult life events. The layered vocals, string-forward composition and choir background vocals emphasize both the undertone of yearning in this song and the urge to push forward. The lyrics emphasize the desire to be a good partner and friend paired with the insecurity past struggles and impacting this ability. The second half of the song shifts the narrative to one of acknowledging the struggles but making the effort anyways. “Listen” is an ode to the personal journey everyone goes through of learning to heal through listening to others and being the best partner and friend you could be.
