“A Life You Saved” is a gorgeous, ethereal and harmonically dense track with beautiful piano work and soaring vocals. It’s a great showcasing of Eli Forrest’s talents, with a sorta Rufus Wainwright-esque penchant for emotional power stirred by orchestral flourishes and sweeping vocals.

Another recommendation from Forrest is “What I Needed”, a heartfelt love song that showcases less of an atmosphere, though with more heart-laden charm:
