- It’s only 51 seconds long yet it conveys the singer’s feelings perfectly
- Quite a minimalist song but sounds full thanks to masterful uses of chopped vocal samples and reverb
- Expresses many Democrats’ and anti-Trump Republicans’ and Independents’ sentiments perfectly…in short, a universal feeling of “choosing the lesser of two evils” rather than a candidate they genuinely like
- Timeless…or at least, timely on two occasions (or, in the worst case scenario, more than that)
- Super catchy with simple but nuanced lyrics
- It’s got a dark tone, fitting the supposedly pejorative nickname “Dark Brandon” which Biden himself has apparently embraced
- Can listen to on loop 1000 times and not get bored of it
- It’s written by only one songwriter and yet it hits harder than top 40 songs written by multiple songwriters quality-wise
