5. When They Leave
Have you ever met someone who cuts so deep when they leave?
“When They Leave” features a slow tempo but maintains a smooth beat that’s perfect for vibing. As for lyrically, the song delves into the complexities of being emotionally attached to a relationship, even after experiencing the pain of abandonment. I appreciated the soft vocals and poignant lyricism, which beautifully capture the tension between deep longing and the hurt caused by this person’s departure.
4. Move On
They tell us to “Move On” like it’s ever that easy.
“Move On” blends an almost vintage intro with a sultry melody and deep, distorted backing vocals, smoothly transitioning into a modern sound led by a guiding beat. This shift in style is one of the song’s highlights. The infectious beat and bass are sure to get listeners moving, while the lyrics effectively convey the confusion and sense of failure that often accompanies relationship breakdowns. The track encapsulates the complexity of navigating the aftermath of a romantic misstep, making it relatable for anyone who’s experienced similar emotions.
3. Love Me?
Sometimes leaving and staying is all the same— as long as we don’t have to choose.
“Love Me?” stands out as one of the more upbeat and dynamic tracks on the album, while still maintaining a soft tone. The rhythm and distorted vocals in the pre-chorus and chorus create an infectious vibe, inviting listeners to nod their heads along. This song beautifully encapsulates the push and pull of navigating a relationship, illustrating how the decision to stay or leave can be more complex than it appears. Chris expresses this frustrating dilemma with striking clarity, making the emotional weight of the lyrics resonate deeply.
2. Hung Up
Are they “Hung Up” on their love for you, or the idea of you?
This song is one of the slower, more melancholic tracks on the album, delving into the painful reality of a breakup. It highlights how we often confuse loneliness with love, a feeling that keeps us tethered to a past relationship even after it’s over. The slow instrumentals and vocals effectively convey the sadness and emptiness of this experience, particularly when you’re left without closure but still drawn to the person who hurt you. Overall, Chris masterfully expresses the emotional turmoil of having to move on despite lingering feelings, making the lyrics feel incredibly authentic and relatable.
1. Feeling U
Chris is “Feeling U” in this sweet past (potentially continuing) love story.
“Feeling U” features beautifully layered vocals used to express admiration and the recurring nature of a romantic connection. The gentle, sweet melody evokes a deep sense of love and adoration, complemented by a soft sound that transitions into a more vibrant beat halfway through. This shift enhances the emotional depth of the song, offering stimulating vibes that resonate with listeners.
The seamless blend of melodies, rhythms, and beats creates a captivating listening experience, making “Feeling U” a standout track worthy of attention.
