Moments Worth Waiting For
The rhythmic, percussive breathiness that drives the hook of 'Curious' with infectious swagger.
The transition from the atmospheric overture into the driving, synth-heavy pulse of 'Feelings'.
The collaborative vocal interplay and high-energy release during the bridge of 'What I Need'.
