Moments Worth Listening For
The sultry, whispered delivery of the title hook in Dirty Looks that defines the album's late-night energy.
The lush, Luther Vandross-produced vocal arrangements on It's Hard for Me to Say that elevate the balladry to high art.
The rhythmic synth-stab transition into the chorus of Shockwaves that perfectly captures 1987 dance-pop.
