Get Your Wish (Single)

lextrueno When I was traveling all the time for work in 2020 and having a hard time; this song captured many emotions. Even though the source material was written by Porter, the vocalization and emotions conveyed were more desperate, and hopeful in a stronger sense. Almost like the demand for hope and things changing for the better. This has been a song I come back to often, and I'm glad because other work from Essenger are incredibly emotional and nostalgic. 10/10! Favorite track: Get Your Wish.

exsurgo Great song (cover) from a very talented musician and gifted vocalist. Previous comment says “screaming voice”??—there's no screaming here. This is a vastly superior version of the song, beautifully synthed.

Tracey Probably my most favourite cover of this track. Essenger's got a great screaming voice. Favorite track: Get Your Wish.

1.	Get Your Wish 03:26	lyrics	buy track
I'll make it right again But it's no use, you said As my hunger grows and grows I have to write the meaning of my life Or else everything's in vain When the glory tries to tempt you It may seem like what you need But if glory makes you happy Why are you so broken up? So tell me how it felt when you walked on water Did you get your wish? Floating to the surface Quicker than you sank Idol, idol So tell me how it felt when you walked on water Did you get your wish? Floating to the surface Quicker than you sank Idol, idol Don't say you lose just yet Get up and move ahead And not only for yourself 'Cause that's your role The work that stirred your soul You can make for someone else One day you choke, your urges overflow And obsession wears you down But don't you waste the suffering you've faced It will serve you in due time So tell me how it felt when you walked on water Did you get your wish? Floating to the surface Quicker than you sank Idol, idol So tell me how it felt when you walked on water Did you get your wish? Floating to the surface Quicker than you sank Idol, idol So tell me

about

Essenger crafts a retro-synth reimagining of Porter Robinson’s new single "Get Your Wish." Lush atmospheres and synth-driven rhythms contrast a smooth vocal performance that builds into an impassioned chorus, paying respect to the original while putting Essenger’s creative style on full display.

"Get Your Wish" succeeds Essenger’s debut album After Dark and is available now on all major platforms from independent synthwave label FiXT Neon.
