Morningrise is Slowdive's second single. It is a simple yet powerful single. The vocals are less defined and become just an additional sound to add to mood of the individual song.
The title track shows some more ambient leanings, It would have felt disjointed if it was included on Just for a Day. It shows that Slowdive were capable of a much more atmospheric sound.
She Calls was a favourite from their live set. It is the only Slowdive song that I know with rolling drums. This contrasts with the shimmering guitars and vocals that are awash with reverb.
Losing Today is Slowdive’s first outing in the more ambient regions of shoegaze. It is a haunting soundscape, in which Rachel's vocals are barely audible. The lyrics, if you can make the out, are melancholic and fraught with depression.
In a corner
She sits and waits
She's waiting for
Her heart to break
It says it all
Don't lose today
