Moments Worth Listening For
The iconic piano opening of the title track that feels like a curtain rising on a Broadway stage.
The dramatic brass swells in 'Now That You’ve Gone' that provide a rhythmic engine for the heartbreak.
The way the strings sweep upward during the chorus of 'Music', mimicking the physical sensation of a lifting mood.
