Prioritize the story in the verses and avoid over-singing; the refrain should feel like the natural release.

A strong women's karaoke choice for a women-focused recommendation list or a singer looking for a proven lead-vocal showcase. The main demand is mostly manageable phrasing with a few exposed lines; the simple refrain can become communal without forcing it.
