'Goodbye Horses' features Q's intriguing vocal performance, characterized by a unique blend of light falsetto and deep resonance, creating emotional complexity. The track stands out in the synth-pop genre, thanks to the tension within her voice and her distinctive vocal quirks. The film's soundtrack showcases various performances from Q, illustrating her evolution from a club performer to a glam-rock icon. Songs like 'Heaven' and 'A Fools Life' exemplify her diverse musical range and artistic journey, leaving listeners to wonder about various untold stories behind her work.
On its face, 'Goodbye Horses' shouldn't stand apart from countless comparable synth-pop songs from the same period: the reliable snap and kick of a drum machine creates a familiar sound.
The tension between her featherlight falsetto and the depth at the lower end of her range creates an unshakable sense of unease, further complicated by her small eccentricities.
The songs included on the film's soundtrack do little to contain or classify the mysterious vocalist, offering expanded parallel universes that trace Luckey's journey.
On 'Heaven,' she sings in a textured howl about the afterlife as a bar where 'everyone will leave at exactly the same time,' highlighting her lyrical depth.
