"Clear" by NEEDTOBREATHE, Saturday, August 24, 2024 (updated repost)
YOUR BODY'S DANCING UNDER THE MOON. Bear Rineheart is married to Mary Reams Rineheart and the couple has three sons: Wilder, Woods, and Waters. "Clear" was written by Bear and producer Ed Cash, a producer who is behind mostly produced CCM acts like Chris Tomlin, Steven Curtis Chapman, and Dave Barnes. The song was played at bassist Seth Bolt's wedding shortly after the album's release. I didn't listen to NEEDTOBREATHE much until 2020. When I first heard of them, there were so many crossover Christian bands and in their mid-career, I wasn't listening to much Christian music. Now, "Clear" is a song I frequently hear on Starbucks' corporate playlist. I am drawn to this song especially when I'm torn between my love for my family back home and my partner in Korea. I miss so many milestones in my family members' and friends' lives because of working on the other side of the world- weddings, births, and deaths. Phone calls and presents don't assuage my guilt, but somehow I keep it up. I only hope that someday I can be more present for the ones that I love. Love is complicated when it is torn, but it also becomes clear when you find the right person what you have to do.
