Moments Worth Listening For
The fragile piano melody that anchors the opening track, setting a ghostly and cinematic tone for the record.
The sudden swell of vocal harmonies on 'Wait 'til December' that feels like a brief burst of warmth in a cold room.
The sprawling six-minute closer where the instrumentation slowly dissolves into a hazy, ambient daydream.
