Cold Feet — Tracy Chapman

Gentle and steady. Safe for sensitive listening.

“Gentle acoustic folk arrangement with subtle percussion and electric guitar accents creates a calm, narrative-driven listening experience without harsh or overwhelming elements. Steady tempo and smooth dynamics make it easy on the senses for sensitive listeners.”

How to read the result

Safe means gentle and steady — low dynamic swing, no lurches, soft texture. Moderate means there's real movement; most people are fine, but very sensitive listeners may want to preview. Intense means loud dynamics, sharp textures, or sudden changes — approach with care.

The single most useful number is dynamic range. A high value means the quiet parts and loud parts are far apart — the classic trap where you set a comfortable volume during a soft intro and get blasted at the climax. We flag those.
