Beaches be like... having a solid mega hit, so much so they recursively name the album and lead track for it, and assemble together a power pop rock breakup album around it
Beaches be like... leaning into strong lead vocals, high tempo easy melody guitar riffs, and clever enough lyrics to drive more winners like "Paranoid" and "Shower Beer"
Beaches be like... noticing how their album talks cigarettes and therapy (even if only in -not- going) rather than another TikTok/Spotify darling Noah Kahan, talking smoking weed and sitting at home, and wondering where that difference in post breakup album relationship processing comes from
Beaches be like... also having filler such as too-bubblegummy "Kismet" or bizarre collab with Beach Weather (next time, call Beach House)
Beaches be like... making a solid ~30 min album that gets in stuck in your head during summer song challenge, then again during RC, and that's enough to be a winner
