^I really could never get into Don't look back. The chorus is just so lifeless. I mean, I see a bit of potential there, and the atmosphere they were trying to go for works successfully in a few places... but I feel like they never really tied it all together. I think they used a mixture of modern sounds with some stale sounding ones. For example, the instrumentation for the parts that echo after each line during the chorus sounds really cheap. The song sounds like halfway between a demo and a master copy.
However, I will say the bridge in this song is one of her best! It's the only part I love, but I love it A LOT. I wish the entire song evoked more of that feeling, rather than being so lifeless. The bridge is very emotional and captivating. But the chorus feels too removed.
