Notes: Layered baroque arrangements with colorful harmonies and fulsome production create a lush, full-bodied sound, balanced by fragile introspective vocals and an off-kilter acoustic intro before the band kicks in. Ethereal dream-like flourishes add texture without overwhelming harshness.

A Beatlesque track from XO with intricate layered arrangements, upbeat percussion, and jangling guitars juxtaposed against melancholic lyrics about self-medicating and loss.
