I love this. Which is no surprise, as I love most (all) of FaTM. But I've been a bit nervous that album 3 wouldn't quite compare to Lungs and Ceremonials. So far, I'm not disappointed.
I'm most impressed (besides that epic guitar and her throaty shout) by her talent at rhyming. The rhymes are natural, but not cliche, original, but not forced.
"You do such damage,
How do you manage
To have me crawling back for more?"
It's a pleasant rhythm, and written well. Like the beginning of Never Let Me Go.
"Looking up from underneath,
Fractured moonlight on the sea
Reflections still look the same to me
As before I went under
And it's peaceful in the deep
Cathedral where you cannot breathe
No need to pray, no need to speak
Now I am under."
Lovely and not awkward. Makes you wonder "Why didn't I write that first?"
And I get the same feeling from this new single!
Looking forward to How Big How Blue How Beautiful.
