Welcome to Taste Test, a song/video review series of SubmitHub-only gemstones
Sam Cullen lets the song do the talking with his new cut “Forever.” A glistening outer shell, the thumping midtempo shoots across the sky like a bottle rocket as a sweeping confession of love. “This could be forever,” he sings, the tang of memories still on his tongue. “Your wild, wild heart crashed into mine in the dark of the night,” his words carry with them an inescapable wistfulness. The past comes flooding back, and Cullen sees the rush of a lost love playing again in his eyes. It’s within these moments that we come to understand what it means to feel alive. And love is a cyclone surrounding us.
