Eclipse (from Labyrinth – 2020)
Eclipse feels like a blend of the earthy tones of this album’s title track (Crossroads) and the swinging energy of GFriend’s debut era. I love the violin that winds its way through the instrumental, giving over to more modern sounding synths. The chorus has a beautiful lilt that weaves in unexpected directions as the production kicks up with symphonic heft. This one’s a real sleeper hit for me. And hearing it with 2024 ears, parts of the hook actually remind me of TWS’s If I’m S, Can You Be My N. Totally different moods of course, but the musical kinship is there!
