There is a strong and very personal comeback of Eylsia Nicolas to the limelight with Forever Can Wait, a song that is as personal as it is a triumph. Having earned her fame as a professional tennis player and a record executive, Eylsia transfers the same level of discipline and determination to her music in these parts of her life and the outcome is astounding.
The only difference between Forever Can Wait and other songs is the voice behind the song. Eylsia had to endure severe health problems, including the loss of her voice behind her vocal cords, and regained her singing voice with the innovative sound restoration technology. The infused emotionality that permeates her performance bears the burden of that experience, her voice is fertile, strong and with a kind of grace gained by a hard-earned means that is delicate and fierce.
In music, the performance balances out beautifully between grace and emotional succinctness. The composition does not feature loud instrumental textures, but helps support her vocal without dominating it, and her expressive performance comes out brightly. It is a sophistication, perhaps inspired by her experience of playing with legends like Paul McCartney, Stevie Wonder, and Pavarotti, but is also a refreshing honesty that makes the song one of hers.
Forever Can Wait is not simply a comeback single, it is a song of perseverance and of resurrection. It makes the listeners remember that real art can be created and found in moments when a person is vulnerable. The combination of poise, passion and refined pop sensibility Chic, Eylsia makes this track one that is timeless, and remains with the listener even after the last note.
Having recently achieved her first hit with a song and having a worldwide tour in her intentions, Eylsia Nicolas demonstrates that failures may result in something remarkable. Forever Can Wait is not only a song, but also a tale of power, soul, and a new found meaning.
