Lyrics hit me first, and when I heard \u201cWe\u2019ve been going under, but that\u2019s over your head\u201d I knew Lily had some solid lyrical chops. And that matters – you can squeeze all the production and fancy tricks you want into a 3 minute song, but if the hooks and the heart aren\u2019t there, let\u2019s face it, people hit the skip button. Not happening here. Lily blends plaintive lyrics (\u201cwon\u2019t crash and burn for your benefit\/you can hate me, blame me, tell me I\u2019m insane\/curse my name for the hell of it\u201d? Come on, that\u2019s gorgeous) with the kind of restrained-but-full instrumentation that makes a voice like this truly sing. This tune rides the fence between intimate and massive without once losing balance. Try not to play it twice. Dare you. (Jason Dunn)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
