Moments Worth Listening For
The subtle introduction of pedal steel on I'll Share My World With You that bridges the gap between Vegas and Nashville.
The way the orchestration swells behind the vocal on Ballad of Billie Joe, adding a cinematic weight to the storytelling.
The unusually vulnerable and quiet opening of Since I Loved You Last where the brass is replaced by soft piano.
