Moments Worth Waiting For
The way his signature vibrato elongates the final syllable of the title track, hanging in the air like smoke.
The sudden, sweeping transition from a sparse piano intro to a full orchestral bloom on A Ship Without a Sail.
The delicate, almost whispered delivery during the bridge of Where Is Love? that highlights his technical control.
