It goes straight into the A-melody from the intro.

She’s a truly powerful vocalist, so I think she has enough vocal strength not to be overshadowed by the backing track.

There might be a funky, dance-music vibe right from the start, and overall it’s a poppy, enjoyable piece from beginning to end.

It starts with a band arrangement in the intro, and from the A section onward, the powerful voice holds its own without getting buried by the strong band sound.

It made me expect that the other tracks on this album will be enjoyable as well.
