Moments Worth Listening For

The dizzying, circular vocal phrasing on 'The Windmills of Your Mind' that mimics the lyric's psychological spiral.

The breathtakingly long, sustained high note on 'What Are You Doing the Rest of Your Life?' that feels like a physical embrace.

The transition from a sparse piano opening to a full orchestral swell during 'His Eyes, Her Eyes'.
