For me, this is peak Renaissance, as transportive as prog gets. All those dense pianos, all those vocal aaaahs, layers on layers. Really beautiful stuff. Love is All, man, I was out on a walk in the first Boston snow and that song just about took my knees out.
Full disclosure, I think this just hits at some animal emotional center from my formative days, drawing on some of the baroque quaintness of Mellon Collie's 2nd disc, with a dash of the Pumpkins' most mysteriously affecting guitarwork, those jazzy baselines rolling like Jimmy's drums somehow. AND it sounds like Genesis. Yeah, that's the highway to the center of my heart 4.5/5
