Elise is back with a track that lives up to its name—”Remember” is one of those songs that sneaks up on you, settles in, and lingers long after the final note fades. From the first shimmering strum, the song pulls you into its rich, melancholic world, where hindsight hits hard, and emotions run deep.

The opening guitar glistens like raindrops on a quiet street before the drums roll in, steady but gentle, setting the stage for Elise’s raw, raspy vocals. She sings with a hushed intensity at first, her voice layered with soft harmonies as if whispering a secret only hindsight could understand.

Then, like a wave building on the horizon, the music swells, and Elise lets loose. Her voice soars—not in overpowering belted notes, but in a way that feels achingly sincere, like someone replaying a moment over and over in their head, trying to get it right. The refrain hits like a gut punch: “You got me waiting on the outside.” It’s a feeling, a confession wrapped in melody, carried by a storm of layered guitars and bustling percussion. There’s this push and pull in the song, as if it’s caught between past and present, regret and resolution.

What makes “Remember” truly special is how it captures the universal sting of looking back and wishing things had gone differently. Whether it’s a friend you couldn’t quite save, a moment of hesitation you wish you could undo, or just the weight of all the “what-ifs” that haunt us, Elise wraps it all up in a song that’s equal parts heartbreaking and beautiful. With its lush indie-folk production and soul-baring lyrics, this track isn’t just something to listen to—it’s something to feel.
