Guessing Games

The story behind

Guessing Games sounds like a funhouse mirror game where Daryl Hall's voice stretches like rubber, playing with the echo of his own register. The track circles back on itself, but it’s no ordinary loop: the bass and guitar weave together in a pattern that seems to repeat, though never quite the same way twice. There’s something in that sway that hooks you from the first few bars, as if the song were designed for the listener to try and decipher its structure while it plays.
