    After a decade of intense listening, I would consider this track as one of the best of the 2010s (for the musciality of the voice and the aesthetic of the production, which was ahead of it's time). Was so spectacular and innovative the day I discovered that track.

    1:46 - 2:07
    The distortion and layered vocals just pour out emotion, gives me goosebumps everytime i hear it and makes me turn the volume higher and higher.

    This whole album is so well produced that I still can't get over it, and it's been 8 years. Deep lyrics, unique voice and excellent, ahead of it's time production. Thank you for giving us this gem.

    it has been so many years till the point things become blurred.. But suddenly with just a note or a melody, and everything can wave back, like it has never gone.

    But it's all the same
    I could have foreseen
    That you would act like you are
    Oh so cool you seem
    Blending with that scene
    Wearing what you think is hard
    I can see you struggling
    Boy, don't hurt your brain
    Thinking what you're gonna say
    'Cause everything's a game
    Always trying to calculate
    Trying to look smart but not too smart
    To threaten anything they say
    But it's all the same
    I could have foreseen
    That you would act like you are
    Oh so cool you seem

    After years and years this song still is my drug. I can't even explain what type of emotions you can get from this song especially if you are going through something deep.
    " Boy, don't hurt your brain
    Thinking what you're gonna say
    'Cause everything's a game
    Always trying to calculate
    Trying to look smart but not too smart
    To threaten anything they say "
    --
    Always could've relate to this.
    Always gonna be thankful for this track because it's something else that even till this day I can't fully explain - beyond perfection.

Her voice just makes everything better and this song, everytime I listen to it gives me chills all the time and makes me... Daydream.

      I absolutely agree. That's the point where the background vocals, that have some kind of distortion effect on them, take the main focus for the first time. Then when the main vocals come back in, they have the same distortion effect on them. It's definitely a turning point in the song.
