But 'Immortal' has that kind of brashness to it with it's lyrics, as Diamandis sings rather openly "everybody dies, everybody dies/ If I could buy forever at a price/ I would buy it twice, twice". Despite its slow pace, and the fact that the song takes a rather long time to build (compared to your average song), it does possess a catchy chorus even it is surrounded by a certain sense of solemness but also enlightenment. This is of course aided by Diamandis' vocals which sound rather angelic in tone and soar above the slow rhythmic beat. So far, the album is shaping up to be a rather emotional affair of mixed feelings (from the burst of sexuality in 'Froot' to the self-discovery and emotional journey in 'Happy' to this new life-reflecting 'Immortal').
