Moments Worth Listening For

The raw, unvarnished grit in the opening title track that sets a heavy, soulful tone immediately.

The way the arrangement swells during the six-minute centerpiece 'Superstar', allowing for an extended vocal showcase.

The quiet, gospel-tinged vulnerability of 'Mama Don't Cry' that closes the album on a deeply personal note.
