Music / Tim

We gon' be birds and fly, we're gonna set the world alight, we're gonna lose ourselves tonight.

Dear society
You are moving way too fast
Way too fast for me
I'm just tryna catch my breath
Can I get a little peace of mind?
And a bit of silence to unwind?

Can you hear me SOS? Help me put my tropes to rest:

• Face on the Cover: Like Avicii's previous two full-length albums, though it uses a proper photo of his face instead of silhouettes.
• Minimalistic Cover Art: The cover is a white canvas with a photo of Avicii in the middle, his name on the bottom, the logo on top, the album's name/real name on the right side and 2019 on the left.
• One-Word Title: The album itself, which is the real first name of Avicii.
• Sampling: "Freak" samples "Stay With Me", which itself samples "Won't Back Down".
• Silly Love Songs: Some of the songs are this, including "Tough Love" and "SOS".
  I don't need my drugs, we could be more than just part-time lovers ("SOS")
• Special Guest: Notable singers in this album include Imagine Dragons, Chris Martin and Aloe Blacc.

Don't you love it, how it all just fades away?
When you're close, don't fear the songs of yesterday
And I can't go back, and I can't go back
Don't you love it, how it all, it all just fades away?
It all just fades away
