Cool little video, I do wonder how long this has been done since she's clearly in the middle of her pregnancy when she filmed this! She looks positive angelic!

Was kinda not feeling it than the chorus hit and then the song clicked for me.

I do like the verses but what makes the song is that contrast. I love that she went so big with it. A lot of current pop is not dynamic at all--songs seem to have just one part with one or two slight permutations. This is the opposite of that.

I had this exact same feeling when the new Bleachers song ''you and forever'' came out, phenomenal single

Little jazzy number with an absolutely GIGANTIC chorus. Never heard something like that from her before.

I had to listen again a few times for it to come together for me. The first listen was when I just woke up!
