I love all the buildup at the beginning.

Loved his last album haven’t listened to it in a while though. This post has inspired me to listen to that album again later

In my opinion this is one of the most impressive songs in the last decade. Absolutely love it.

Also this ain't pop at all, this is Soul/Blues. This subreddit has no idea what any genre is.

Such a great song.The chord progression is very similar to Neil Young's "Like A Hurricane." Also neat that the "official" music video to this song depicts a hurricane approaching a town. Probably a coincidence, but a neat detail that adds to the shivers I get from this song.
