Moments Worth Listening For
The transition from the sparse acoustic opening of I Won't Give Up into the swelling, choral-backed climax.
The intricate, jazz-inflected rhythmic interplay of the guitars on 5/6 that elevates it beyond standard pop.
The warm, brassy soul explosion during the chorus of The Freedom Song that sets a celebratory tone.
