Yes! It’s got that marriage between a concise, hummable melody, and lyrics which are simple and economical but still say so much. It’s also similar to BBHS that way (and pretty much the same tempo actually). The arrangement and effects might be updated but it screams classic CH to me. It’s the songwriting “mode” that made me fall in love with CH and doesn’t seem to happen much with Neil in recent years (Terrorise Me is one recent example).
