This combines dream pop elements with drum n bass beats, carrying her delicate vocals but don\u2019t let that fool you as because when she hits the chorus she\u2019s in her element &#8211; what Lily is demonstrating here is the still small voice inside &#8211; this song is about being vulnerable, and putting your feelings out there and telling someone &#8211; ummmm\u2026 I love you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Lord knows we have all been there, where you don\u2019t want to get that soul crushing rejection. This is very relatable lyrically and musically it\u2019s very accessible. I have to applaud the mix for this track because you hear elements of Lily\u2019s voice becoming an instrument on its own, it\u2019s part of the synth pad. The panning reveals that, and the vocal arrangements make this into a very sophisticated song &#8211; great production values and great overall performance.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Track Of The Day \u201cFirst Move\u201d\u00a0@lilywardy\u00a0my mate Lily Ward dropped a new single on Friday and unsurprisingly it\u2019s a good one!
