Moments Worth Waiting For
The soaring vocal harmonies on the chorus of Love on a Wire that recall their 70s peak
The transition from the acoustic intro to the full band swell in Tomorrow
The rhythmic chug and travel-weary lyrics of Midnight Train
The surprisingly lush synth textures that open African Nights
