Melbourne-based singer-songwriter Sunset Salore’s new single, “Call It,” is an iconic power ballad that delves deep into the emotional journey of a relationship. The commanding track addresses all the little moments in a relationship that eventually stack up, ultimately causing a breakup. The song is about that potent moment when we decide we’ve had enough of being treated poorly and deserve better. “Call It” isn’t just a breakup song but a breakthrough song, eliciting a profound emotional message.
“Call It,” according to Sunset Salore, isn’t about one specific relationship but a collection of moments from different relationships throughout her life. She had the time to reflect on how significant certain moments were as time passed, which is heard within her introspective lyrics. It’s said often, but people are not usually present and only realize how some moments were such turning points later. This sentiment is beautifully captured within “Call It.”
The track begins with an ultra-catchy yet somewhat apprehensive keyboard melody, highlighting the foreboding emotions that come to fruition before a breakup. As the song continues, the melody gets louder and more robust, and different instruments, such as the guitar and drums, arrive. Sunset Salore’s angelic vocals effortlessly switch octaves, accentuating her innate vocal talent. Powerful lyrics about standing up for oneself and not allowing someone to mistreat them are emphasized in “Call It.”
“Call It” is the first single from Sunset Salore’s upcoming EP, “Love Kills The Monsters,” which will be released in late 2024. She is a seasoned musician, with her debut single, “Gold,” released in 2019. “Call It” is available now on all major music streaming platforms. You can listen to it here.
