As the track progresses, it literally feels as if time is slowing down as you're listening to this. The R&B influences are pretty much protruding here although the entire mood that is set comes across as Ambient.

I'm saying this because the minimalistic instrumentation on "Head Over Water" is quite tranquilizing and the overall serenity is immediately heightened when we're introduced to the vocals. When we zoom in on the vocal performance, Elvira's delivery felt VERY sincere and honest, making it so much easier to relate with here.
