notes
A layered analog-style pad washes under the chorus, chorused and slow-attacking so it blooms in behind the vocal rather than fighting it. On "Take a Chance" (To Blue Horizons, 1994), the part sits in the group's post-Coconut, workstation-driven dance-pop arrangement of vocal, synth bed and drum programming.
