I want to feel it, Zauner sings on Slide Tackle.

But with the feel, there is an ache I meet to desire living.

Im just a woman with needs.

Then, over the next four minutes, Zauner shows what she means instead of resting on words.

Zauners steady guitar-strumming gives way to a poignant, slow-burning solo.

Its a moment of breaking the pose and showing whats in motion underneath, however raw it may be.

Her playing sounds apprehensive at first as she tests the water with a few notes.

Then, once she gets comfortable, those feelings burst through the chords.

So Zauner approaches the problem like any good writer would, opting to show without telling it all.
