In the lines "What am I supposed to do with all these blues / Haunting me ev'rywhere no matter what I do" in "The Ghost of You and Me," "ev'rywhere" is sung with a melisma (F# B B C B A G), musically giving a sense of that breadth.

"The Ghost of You and Me"
A few days ago, the Zombies posted the track listing of the new album. The title "The Sun Will Rise Again" seemed familiar to me, and I suspect that this is a re-recording of a song from Colin Blunstone's solo album The Ghost of You and Me (the Zombies also re-did "Any Other Way" from the same album for Breathe Out, Breathe In). It had been years since I last listened to the album, and when I listened to it a couple days ago, I found some small features to note.
