A powerful and empowering anthem, ‘Call It’ sees Australian songstress Sunset Salore doing what she does best: writing relatable tunes charged with pathos and poignancy. Built over a cryptic electronic production, the record develops slowly and with gusto, perfectly supporting Salore’s evocative and lush vocal tone. There’s a sense of mystery throughout, perhaps tied to the values of discovery and inquiry contained in the song’s lyricism.
The choruses rise to the challenge perfectly, exhibiting an intense yet polite beat over a sea of hypnotising vocal harmonies. Sunset’s soft yet assertive delivery is highly rewarding, wrapping the listeners on an introspective journey that takes them to the realization that one must stand up for oneself. Realizing she had been trapped in a problematic situation, Sunset Salore breaks free and stays authentic to herself – it’s a question of priority, even.
Delving into the inspiration behind ‘Call It’, she explains: “This song is about addressing all the little micro-moments in a relationship that don’t stack up anymore, and in that moment, deciding to call time on everything.”
