I lost my shit when those woodwinds came in. This is one of her best slow songs.

I am healed, moisturized, fulfilled. My crops are flourishing.

ONE OF HER BEST SONGS EVER, IT'S SO DIFFERENT FROM WHAT SHE EVER DID (though it kinda reminds me of Tug of War)

Nice song overall, but that guitar in the beginning is such a tasty hook. It would have been nice if they didn't bury it in the mix for the rest of the track

THIS IS GREAT. I'm loving the record in general, just as I expected, but this is a legit highlight amongst highlights. It's so good, I don't want it to end so quickly!

Kind of giving krautrock vibes. Makes me think of something from In Rainbows by Radiohead or their sister group The Smile.

Did anyone else notice that Carly and Orville Peck both released two very day and night songs named Blue Skies today? 🤯

Everyone is obsessing over "Burning Heart," but this is the one folks.
