A voice, over a lifetime
The story
The progression of the sound, accent and clarity of a voice through life.
What we were aiming for
The subject is a voice, so the production keeps the vocal close and unadorned — the listener should notice the grain and the accent, which is exactly what the lyric is about losing.
From the lyrics

What they said
“Excellent modern 'heartland' pop song.”
