Moments Worth Listening For

The jarring shift from the upbeat country-pop bounce of Not Fair to its brutally honest lyrics about sexual dissatisfaction.

The way the shimmering synth pads on The Fear create a sense of hollow celebrity glamour before the beat drops.

The intimate, almost whispered vocal delivery on Chinese that captures the mundane domesticity of a night in.
