    The Mother we Share is such a great song that it deserves to be added to the annals of all time great pop songs not just great hooks and beats but an emotional quality throughout, lyrics, Lauren's voice that makes you want to dance and cry at the same time. It deserves a higher rating because if you read the Rolling Stone review, it seems the person who turns it into a score has misreadThe Mother we Share is such a great song that it deserves to be added to the annals of all time great pop songs not just great hooks and beats but an emotional quality throughout, lyrics, Lauren's voice that makes you want to dance and cry at the same time.

This happens a lot unfortunately. Buy the EP. Love it. Expand

  1. Overall, the Recover EP is a perfect stepping stone in Chvrches’ brick road.

    The trio’s past experiences may explain how it manages to exercise a seasoned talent for both variety and control.... The two “Recover” remixes, by Austria’s Cid Rim and U.K.-based Curxes, are filler. They’re pleasant on their own, but neither can hold up to the original.
