The song “Last Mail,” included on the 26th album Method.

Its lyrics depict memories stirred by an email from a former lover, something many listeners will likely empathize with based on their own experiences.

Although the tempo is relaxed, the melody moves dramatically, making it hard to stay in the groove—so focus when singing it at karaoke.

The vocal range isn’t very wide, so if you keep the key points in mind and sing calmly, it’s a pop tune that should be relatively approachable to tackle.
