The back-to-back hit of Kintsugi -> Fingertips might be too much, or a breaking point for casual listeners (or BTD stans), but they're sisters. They belong together. It's the heart of the album.

ok but has anyone noticed that in let the light in, she says:

 

"let the light in, at your backdoor yelling 'cause I wanna come in"

so she's saying she's outside his house, wanting to come in, which means the "light" in this metaphor is her.

and then she says "turn your light on"

 

queen of singing about wanting her man to turn her on

the jon batiste interlude sounds like a cult initiation, and i'm thinking it might be a sensitive topic if he's the pastor, but sonically, it captures a terrifying kind of beauty and out of body experience u might have beyond yourself however that hits, it's incredibly soulful yet still real elegant and sensual. I love it.
