It&#8217;s a touching, if slightly chilling metaphor, especially for those memories we don&#8217;t want to retain but somehow can&#8217;t shake.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">We can feel Beer&#8217;s passion in the song, and can see it in the clip, with his face betraying the fact he has many such memories. It&#8217;s introspective and deeply personal, and we are left with a somewhat disarming feeling of intruding on a private experience.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Find out more about Chris Beer online on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/chrisbeermusic\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Facebook<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/chrisbeermusic\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Instagram<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/chrisbeermusic\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Twitter<\/a>, and <a href=\"https:\/\/soundcloud.com\/chrisbeerworld\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">SoundCloud<\/a>.<\/p>\n<div class=\"epyt-video-wrapper\">\n<div  style=\"display: block; margin: 0px auto;\"  id=\"_ytid_71910\"  width=\"640\" height=\"360\"  data-origwidth=\"640\" data-origheight=\"360\"  data-relstop=\"1\" data-facadesrc=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/GbxXdfUrpVY?enablejsapi=1&#038;origin=https:\/\/essentiallypop.com&#038;autoplay=0&#038;cc_load_policy=0&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;loop=0&#038;fs=1&#038;playsinline=1&#038;controls=1&#038;disablekb=0&#038;color=red&#038;cc_lang_pref=&#038;rel=0&#038;autohide=2&#038;theme=dark&#038;\" class=\"__youtube_prefs__ epyt-facade epyt-is-override  no-lazyload\" data-epautoplay=\"1\" ><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" data-spai-excluded=\"true\" class=\"epyt-facade-poster skip-lazy\" loading=\"lazy\"  alt=\"Chris BEER-Remember to forget (Official Video)\"  src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/i.ytimg.com\/vi\/GbxXdfUrpVY\/maxresdefault.jpg?w=640&#038;ssl=1\"  \/><button class=\"epyt-facade-play\" aria-label=\"Play\"><svg data-no-lazy=\"1\" height=\"100%\" version=\"1.1\" viewBox=\"0 0 68 48\" width=\"100%\"><path class=\"ytp-large-play-button-bg\" d=\"M66.52,7.74c-0.78-2.93-2.49-5.41-5.42-6.19C55.79,.13,34,0,34,0S12.21,.13,6.9,1.55 C3.97,2.33,2.27,4.81,1.48,7.74C0.06,13.05,0,24,0,24s0.06,10.95,1.48,16.26c0.78,2.93,2.49,5.41,5.42,6.19 C12.21,47.87,34,48,34,48s21.79-0.13,27.1-1.55c2.93-0.78,4.64-3.26,5.42-6.19C67.94,34.95,68,24,68,24S67.94,13.05,66.52,7.74z\" fill=\"#f00\"><\/path><path d=\"M 45,24 27,14 27,34\" fill=\"#fff\"><\/path><\/svg><\/button><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>With a video created by Justin Lynch, &#8216;Remember To Forget&#8217; by singer-songwriter Chris Beer, we see the Austrian singer-songwriter tackling the thorny subject of trying to bring back the memory of those we&#8217;ve held dearest to our hearts, who are sadly lost.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":7,"featured_media":43860,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"advanced_seo_description":"","jetpack_seo_html_title":"","jetpack_seo_noindex":false,"jetpack_seo_schema_type":"","_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2},"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[57,9,640],"tags":[214,5900,18247,18249,18248,18251,10507,14990,77,370,1945,18250,78,304,81,221],"class_list":["post-43852","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-new-artists","category-new-releases","category-videos","tag-austria","tag-black-and-white","tag-chris-beer","tag-folky","tag-graz","tag-justin-lynch","tag-loss","tag-memory","tag-new-release","tag-new-single","tag-new-video","tag-remember-to-forget","tag-singer","tag-songwriter","tag-video","tag-vienna"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p5yMhl-bpi","jetpack-related-posts":[{"id":71739,"url":"https:\/\/essentiallypop.com\/epop\/2021\/10\/chris-beer-nothing-like\/","url_meta":{"origin":43852,"position":0},"title":"Chris Beer &#8211; &#8216;Nothing Like&#8217;","author":"Lisa Hafey","date":"11\/10\/2021","format":false,"excerpt":"Chris Beer's warm, conversational style makes you feel like you're a good friend and that he wants you to have a good time.
