Moments Worth Listening For
The aggressive, staccato synth bassline opening Don't Stand Another Chance that signals a more mature direction.
The charmingly dated technological optimism in Communication where she sings about microwave transmissions.
The extended six-minute groove of Pretty Boy that showcases a more experimental, funk-driven side of her early sound.
