The collaboration with Sandro Cavazza is particularly meaningful, as Cavazza was a close collaborator with Avicii on tracks like ‘Without You.‘ Sandro Cavazza’s vocals are a key part of the track’s success. His voice adds an emotional touch, perfectly matching the song’s themes of holding on to precious moments and relationships. Cavazza’s soulful performance brings the song to life, offering a perfect balance between the upbeat rhythm and the deeper emotional message. The track’s acoustic elements, like guitar strings, give it a warm and organic feel, while the electronic aspects make it perfect for dancing.
