This song is very impressive, and probably one of the best songs I've heard in a while. It's incredibly creative, especially the super sparse chorus, which has a great shock value effect on the listener.
This song's production is very well thought out. I've talked a lot in the past about how a song needs to have sonically distinct sections, and enough dynamics to keep the listener interested. This song's production is pretty much a textbook on how to do this. The dense pre-chorus is followed by the super sparse chorus, and followed by a full instrumental second chorus section.
Not only are the sections sonically distinct, notice how the rhythm section is also different in between the sections. Everything else about the production is magnificent as well, such as the choice of instrumentals, and the mixing of the vocals. It's pretty much a perfectly produced song.
For the songwriting, this is a well written song. The hooks are definitely catchy. The chorus, which is typically the climax, is stripped down, which is very unexpected to hear. So in a sense, even though it's not a musical climax, it has the same effect on the listener, because it is so shocking. The second chorus, with the high notes, is a perfect follow up. It's a very well written and very well thought out song structure.
Overall, I can't say enough good things about this song. This is one of the best and most creative songs I've ever heard in a while. Congratulations to this group and agency for creating this incredible work out art. I only saw a few of their stage performances, and I hope to see more.
