Taste Test: Zach Cornell asks, ‘Is Anyone Left’?
The singer-songwriter wonders why he’s so alone.
Welcome to Taste Test, a song/video review series of SubmitHub-only gemstones
“Letting go comes easy when you’re busy letting down,” Zach Cornell sings over bristling guitar and lonesome pedal steel. In “Is Anyone Left,” the singer-songwriter laments being alone, wandering the earth left only to his devices and a cold seat beside him. “Is anyone left to tie me down / Keep me from digging this heart down in the ground,” he unfurls his heartstrings. “Is anyone there to listen to me / Keep me from running from a little bit of peace.” He’s drowning in his sorrow, and every droplet oozes onto the record. From the finger-pickin’ production to a bleeding, heart-torn vocal, “Is Anyone Left” is a knock-you-flat sort of tune.
