Summer Brennan’s latest single, “Hear Me” is an emotional exploration of the anxieties and frustrations faced by young people in today’s society.
Summer Brennan is a young artist with stunning talent. Inspired by artists such as Taylor Swift, Conan Gray, and Holly Humberstone, Summer has developed her own signature in the world of pop. Her music is characterized by her powerful voice and careful observation of the world she has grown up in.
“Hear Me,” her latest track, expresses Summer’s discomforts with the many concerns young generations have to deal with daily. She addresses sensitive issues such as gun violence, exploitation of women, and political corruption. However, she refuses to be a victim of the circumstances and denies to accept it as a doomed destiny. With “Hear Me,” Summer takes the opportunity to address her listeners and motivate them to take action to change the reality that limits the lives of many, and that unfortunately, people consider part of the norm.
Musically, “Hear Me” is intimate and compelling like a conversation with a friend that understands your concerns, but also loud and cathartic like a protest. Starting with a melancholic acoustic sound, Summer captures the anxiety that today’s somber panorama transmits, then the energy grows until becoming an energetic pop-rock anthem that transmits the frustrations of an entire generation.
When it comes to its lyrics, “Hear Me” is direct and honest. Summer shares her sadness and anxiety, but when she does it her voice represents all the young people entering to adulthood in a messed-up world. The song’s opening lines immediately set the tone: “There’s a man yelling on the TV / Talks of drugs politics and sex,” highlighting the confusion and uncertainty that young people often face in a world that can be overwhelming and chaotic.
Summer is not afraid of treating sensitive topics in her writing. She addresses the issue of gun violence, which has become a pervasive problem in many parts of the world. Fear and unsafety are the emotions behind her voice as she describes young boys afraid to go to school. She also highlights the exploitation of women in today’s society. She stands out for the young girls not feeling comfortable with their bodies, and depressed for not fitting into the mold of unrealistic beauty that the media promotes.
“Hear Me” is a declaration of intent from a youth generation demanding change. Summer’s message is clear: young people must be heard, and their concerns must be addressed. With such an impactful song, Summer Brennan shares her ability to articulate the complexities of her emotions and the maturity of her thoughts, creating an impressive and inspiring song.
