The song also features a nice interplay of solos between guitar, trombone and B3 Organ.
Following the romantic "My One True Valentine" is "When You Do That Thing You Do", bringing a jazzy samba element into the mix. The song captures the feelings of joy and enchantment a person feels when they meet that special someone. "
Last To Know" has a rich and mellow arrangement, along with Farrell's soothing vocals creating a relaxing melody. "
Last To Know" deals with heartbreak and falling out of love, infusing instruments such as the piano, trumpet, trombone and saxophone.
Farrell draws from a variety of musical influences from legendary jazz pop vocalists Frank Sinatra, Tony Bennett, and Louis Armstrong to rock stars Elvis Presley, The Beatles, and
Rolling Stones to the R&B soul of Stevie Wonder,
Ray Charles and Otis Redding to poets Leonard Cohen,
Tom Waits and Bruce Cockburn.
