The immediate standout is the way the notes flow. With a voice like the wind, she carries your emotions alongside hers. The story is profound, but it also comes from the mind of a teenager. The years when we all feel broken, now told through the voice of a loved one, her future self. VelumVelvet's performance feels real and raw. The brilliance of the performance is captured in its most honest moments. This is truly a masterpiece, and not simply because she is an amazing singer.
