Moments Worth Listening For
the sudden eruption of rhythmic thunder on Os tambores de Minas where the percussion feels like a heartbeat of the earth
the transition from Portuguese to Spanish on the dual versions of Paper Napkins highlighting the subtle shifts in vocal phrasing
the way his falsetto hangs suspended in the air during Rouxinol like a bird caught in a thermal updraft
