A killer keyboard solo is introduced towards the latter half of the song providing a great transition to the middle. The subtle “do dooo dooo” pitches in a downward motion are easily locked into your brain as you hum along while layered with a bass guitar. More of a vocal track and less of an instrumental one for the first half. Kick drum fills present the powerful anthem each time while then accompanied by poppy synthesizers. “One of the weaker intros to any track on the album, but soon recuperates its lost appeal with a very powerful clash of vocals and bass guitar. Claudia Lewis (Hurry Up, We’re Dreaming 2011) The final chord has tucked us in, whispering to us “goodnight” as the final note of the soft piano motif has concluded.”ġ3. The piano lays us down softly to repose, to recollect on our adventure. As the last minute of Hurry Up, We’re Dreaming conclude, I cannot help but feel like we were given too much of the rush and not enough of the breath. This journey has given us so much more to look forward to, but so much to appreciate. More amplitude and density returns, yet a calming feeling has arisen. Guitar is then providing as a metronome before the poppy textures of the synth returns. The choral timbre returns and we are given the siren of what is to easily inferred as aspiration, as reaching. A bassy introduction of what feels like the blackest parts of space is introduced, and we move slowly away from this experience. “Anthony leaves us with his strong and formulaic progression of waving synth chords and chorale like pitches of grand texture. He said on an interview he wanted to evoke the “cheesy” tunes of late 80s/early 90s but there’s a difference in inspiring yourself on them and outright replicating them on a grating degree.”ġ4. A glimpse of a good idea tacked at the end of a generic “revival” song (I know I’m a minority on not liking it). “The last thirty seconds feel like so much wasted potential, it’s Get Lucky all over again.
