Moments Worth Listening For
The sudden, piercing falsetto leap that cuts through the heavy bass on the title track.
The way the drums drop into a cavernous reverb tail, leaving the bassline to carry the melody solo.
Those signature 'shoo-be-doo' ad-libs that turn a simple rhythm into a vocal masterclass.
