Moments Worth Listening For
The effortless transition into the bossa nova swing on the title track, where Mathis's voice floats above a light percussion bed.
The dramatic orchestral build and vocal conviction during the climax of 'What Now My Love'.
The delicate, almost whispered intimacy of the opening lines in 'I Dream of You'.
