A catchy new track from Dan the Spaceman and Light Work, “It Takes One (Don’t Look Back Now)” melds twangy guitars and starry-eyed twinkling amidst infectious vocal sequences. The “don’t look back,” cautioning aligns with rumbling bass and hazy, spacey textural intrigue for a compelling mid-point, shifting thereafter into an excitable array of guitars; the conclusion exudes a wailing solo with charismatic appeal. “It Takes One (Don’t Look Back Now)” is an excellent showing.
