How do we sit in the unrest of the world without jumping to conclusions on how to fix it?

That is one of the themes behind Amy Grant's new single and opening track, “The 6th Of January (Yasgur’s Farm)” from her upcoming album The Me That Remains.

While the title could indicate a stance on the political spectrum, it is quite the opposite. The song asks the question, haven't we all lost our way? With references to the idealistic era of Woodstock and the hope for something better, the song is more of a question than a commentary. Says Amy, “We operate in the world around us and sometimes neglect the power of what we have in our choices and how those choices affect the world around us”.

Sonically, the song is reminiscent of Joni Mitchell, yet the lyric and message is timeless.

“I want to be present for what emerges in my time”, says Amy,“ and the song observes life and the unrest many of us feel yet knowing we are

shaping the world around us daily. Maybe life and problem solving is more of ‘we’ than ‘me’”.

The song’s lyrics point to the fact that all of us still have a ways to go in solving the unrest but you have to sit in it, see another’s lens of how they perceive the world, and know that we are stronger as ‘we’.

With references to Woodstock, Harper’s Ferry and John Lennon, the song invokes a conversation that all is not lost, but if we can choose to look through a lens other than just our own, maybe there is hope to come together and find the way forward through the unrest.
