Blood Orange featuring Tinashe “Tuesday Feeling (Choose to Stay)”

“Tuesday Feeling” is built around a strumming guitar part that seems to sway gently, suggesting a carefree chill vibe that’s at odds with the anxious and agitated state of mind expressed in the lyrics. The odd balance of neuroses and tranquil vibes carry through the song, though the song shifts out of its strummy mode for a bridge section built around keyboard chords that sound even more relaxed and gentle. Devonté Hynes sells the confusion and angst of the lyrics in his vocal without totally undermining the general feeling of the track, and he sounds particularly good in contrast with Tinashe’s vocal, which sound considerably more warm and grounded.
