Eric Ananda’sWait For You is a haunting tune that feels like it’s been plucked straight from the stars. Hailing from Kenya, this producer and songwriter has crafted a song that’s not just a listening experience but a journey through the cosmos of human emotion.

Wait For You is a masterclass in sonic storytelling. Each note, each chord, feels meticulously chosen to mirror the song’s narrative. The instrumental arrangement is a lush garden of sound where every element, from the gentle strumming to the evocative vocals, blooms in harmony. It’s a track where the music doesn’t just accompany the lyrics—it amplifies them.

Ananda’s muse for this track is as ethereal as the song itself. Written on a serene Saturday morning in March 2022, the song draws inspiration from a close friend’s connection with the moon. It’s a tale of hope, of waiting for dawn after a long, dark night. The lyrics, “Talking to the moon” and “I promise I’ll wait for you,” encapsulate the essence of the song—a promise of brighter days after enduring the darkest nights.

The song’s lyrical content is a poignant reflection on time, hope, and the promise of a new day. “I believe, I believe, that Saturday morning’s always chasing you,” sings Ananda, painting a picture of someone perpetually on the cusp of a new beginning. The chorus, with its repeated promise to wait for you, is a heartwarming pledge of unwavering support and love.

Wait For You is more than just the second single from Ananda’s new album, Sunsets and Daydreams. It’s a beacon for anyone navigating the tumultuous seas of life, offering solace and assurance that brighter days are on the horizon. Eric Ananda has not just given us a song; he’s given us a lighthouse. And in a world that often feels adrift, Wait For You is a much-needed anchor.
