Moments Worth Listening For

The rhythmic, percussive delivery of the 'lily white turning to raspberry' refrain in Les Nouveaux Riches.

The sudden, vulnerable admission of leaving the bathroom light on for comfort during Don't Ask.

The way the lush vocal harmonies swell and then dissipate into a dry, lonely bass line on Memories.
