Flower (from Fallin’ Gentle – 2019)

What I stated then: “As with many J-pop tracks, Flower’s melody is fairly long-winded, taking a number of totally different refrains and melding them into one intricate refrain. Due to this, the tune lacks the direct and fast impression of the group’s greatest work. However, its complexity additionally rewards repeated listens. It’s like an limitless buffet of melody strains – none of which hit fairly as strongly as I’d have favored.” (learn full evaluate)

Up to date ideas: I’m nonetheless unsure that the “brassy salsa rhythm” (as I described it again then) is the very best match for GFriend and there’s undoubtedly one thing lacking from this single to make it really spark, however there’s additionally sufficient musical drama stuffed inside the association to maintain curiosity excessive. My favourite part comes in the course of the second a part of the refrain (post-chorus?), which breezes by with an ease that counters the complicated instrumental. My ranking stays the identical for this one.
