Moments Worth Waiting For
The way the violin and brass swell together during the climax of 'And the Healing Has Begun', pushing into a near-religious ecstasy.
The sudden, bouncy shift into a folk-dance rhythm on 'Rolling Hills' that feels like a spontaneous pub session.
Van's hushed, repetitive whispering of 'into the music' during the final track, as if he's physically disappearing into the sound.
