Jan Eisen - Summer Me, Winter Me
- A serene and tranquil feeling fused with a blues tone describes Jan Eisen’s Summer Me, Winter Me. “Papa Can You Hear Me Now” introduces singular acoustic guitar work along with muffled percussion play, which are united by Eisen’s scatting. She then elicits a plea for assistance to her father, with lines like, “May the light illuminate the night, may the spirit illuminate my soul. Papa, can you hear me? Papa, can you see me? Papa, can you find me in the night? Papa, are you near me? Papa, can you hear me? Papa, can you help me not be frightened?” “You Must Believe In Spring” has a catchy yet reticent flow and speaks of a season filled with rose-colored descriptions and warmhearted feelings, with lines like, “Just think if winter comes, can spring be far behind? Beneath the deepest snows the secret of a rose is merely that it knows that you must believe in spring.” On “Deed I Do,” Eisen talks about the convivial feeling she has, now that she has located a mate, with lines like, ”I’m glad that I’m the one that found you. That’s why I’m always hangin’ round you.” Jan Eisen’s Summer Me, Winter Me, is as varied as the changing intervals of time and its lyrics speak of sweet emotions and feelings conjoined with love and life.
