I still hold the position that although I feel like all the songs have that unfinished/demo vibe and aren't really among her best songs by a long shot, I appreciate the fact that it feels like a solid album in terms of being a deviation from her usual hodgepodge of genres being thrown together and being called a body of work. It's weird cause WOML is full of songs that feel incomplete but still feels like a complete album. Lol I hope I make at least a little sense.
The title track is certainly among her standouts, for me at least. It's one of the more unique ballads she's done since No way on UNIVERSE.
