Moments Worth Listening For
The gritty, funk-driven bassline that transforms Santa Claus Go Straight to the Ghetto into a soulful social statement.
The transition from the sparse Little Drummer Boy interlude into the full-bodied, polyrhythmic main track.
The way Hamilton's raspy baritone breaks with genuine emotion during the climax of Spirit of Love.
