Sunflower Bean is gearing up to release their new album “Primetime” due this Friday, and ahead of it, they’ve put out the best single of this cycle so far: “There’s a Part I Can’t Get Back.” it’s a bright pop song with gut-punching, heart-breaking lyrics. On this track, Julia Cumming opens up about the lingering trauma of being groomed at a young age. Sometimes, the best revenge is making sure those who’ve hurt you can’t escape their actions—in this case, it’s by way of an ultra-catchy chorus: “There’s a part I can’t get back / You stole it from me / There’s a bag I can’t unpack / It’s always with me / If I die before I wake I pray the Lord lets me get even first / I do, I do.”
The band’s move from New York City to Los Angeles seems to have left its mark in the making of this track, too, as Cumming’s vocal delivery and melodic flourishes echo California icon Jenny Lewis.
