Moments Worth Waiting For
The explosive entry of the banjo and gang vocals on the opening track setting a high-stakes energy.
The nostalgic, slightly slower build of the Save Tonight cover that transforms a 90s staple into a modern folk-pop anthem.
The stripped-back vulnerability of the bridge in Life Ain't Easy before the final massive chorus kicks in.
