Isabelle Gitlin Delivers A Powerful Single
A new single from Isabelle Gitlin gives off a beautifully detailed and refreshing form of honesty and this is a huge part of what gives this track its power because, that honesty is delivered with passionate vocals that bear soul and heart so throughout this song's unfolding, you can hear more and more of that intensity growing and realize that it is completely authentic which gives the entire thing a great deal of personality and character.
I think this is why it hits so hard. You know that this is a track that came from someplace completely real so it's genuine and this really makes you hold on to that character, and it also gives the song layers because it has lyrics that can get pretty detailed, especially in terms of emotion and inner thoughts coming out, so I found it to be super relatable and I think a lot of people will also find it to be the same.
"Long & Gone" is absolutely gorgeous and again, there's a lot of realness to it so the performance is impactful and robust with these fiery kinds of vocals that are like a cry out and that's all built around this sort of heartbreak that the song revolves around.
This is like a power ballad of sorts. It is extremely emotionally driven of course but it also incorporates elements of contemporary pop, commercial pop, indie pop, and this passionate, R&B underbelly that all come together and create an atmosphere that wraps itself around you and keeps you right where it wants to.
This was a beautiful arrangement and you can tell there was plenty of attention to detail during the song's creation of course, however, it's the heart that hits you.
The song has tons of heart and the vocal delivery is so robust and full-bodied that you just get engulfed in the emotion of everything.
To me, this track came across as cinematic. When I say that I mean that I can see this song playing in an emotional scene of a film for example. It does have a vast undertone that lets it feel expansive, and again, there are waves of intensities that are delivered throughout the track mostly due to that course that comes back in heavy-handedly.
The chorus sticks with you for a long time after the song has ended and the only way to really satiate that is to listen to the track again.
One thing that I've learned from listening to this track is that Isabelle Gitlin absolutely gives pieces of herself in her music. I adore this because you don't get it often these days so when you come across an artist that's young and emotional, they let a lot off of their chest to the point where it was probably cathartic to actually write and release the song, you want to hold on to that.
I feel like this is something that meant a lot to Isabelle and that this was the way she knew how to share or get it off of her chest. It was a lot of emotional build-up that came to a head when she created this song and hopefully now she feels a little bit better having it out in the open. Out in the world where other people can take it in.
One of the most beautiful aspects about this whole thing is that whoever is listening to the track may be feeling a certain kind of heartbreak, struggle, or emotional battle and it's possible that this song may let them feel that they're not alone. This may be enough to let them get through that battle, struggle, or heartbreak.
This is the power of music, and when it's done right, it can have the right impact.
I feel like this song will most certainly have the right impact on the right people and it's certainly affected me in a certain way.
This track caused memories of my own to pop into my head at random and I found that to be super connective and also quite a rarity these days.
This was a gorgeous track that was powerful in its own right. I would suggest listening to it with headphones on because then you get the full impact of the track. Again, there are layers here that can be peeled back and you don't really want to miss a lot.
For me, listening with headphones is the best way to soak a song like this in.
At any rate, listen to this track and see how it affects you.
