Moments Worth Listening For
The heartbreakingly steady vocal on 'So Much Like My Dad' where the realization of inherited traits hits home.
The bright, dancing fiddle intro of 'You're Right I'm Wrong' that contrasts with the lyrical regret.
The way the pedal steel mimics a sigh during the bridge of 'Here We Go Again'.
