Yesterday I posted my number 1, today, my number 2 (and part of me goes lol) I believe this to be masterful. Technically I think that it is her best song (emotions won me over and I put Apollo at number one). The crescendos that build to just the piano. As the lyrics come in the orchestra comes back in. There seems to be a conversation between Toris voice and the other instruments. We get the introspection of the bridge and then the intensity comes back in. Within this piece I can hear what Almost Rosey could have been on the album (it is full force all the way through). There are light parts, heavy parts, dark parts, and gorgeous parts. I feel it illustrates Tori as a composer and a pianist, whereas the rest of her catalog illustrates Tori as a pop composer. I could say so much more, but again Shattering Sea is masterful. Night of Hunters is my favorite album. https://youtube/watch?v=cm1NffeE3Mg
