“Get Your Mind Right” and its underlying hints of bass with drifty melodies floating over the top sound like something that might have been on the soundtrack of a 1980s thriller. When the vocals come in one can all but envision the Miami Vice-esque fashion coupled with a dusky mood, the song hitting the same thoughtful emotional resonance of a more brooding but equally epic mid-1980s Simple Minds. But the theme of the song about getting your head together and on the path of pursuing habits leading to positive outcomes after a period of maybe straying from the path you know is right for you because life has jostled your instinctive trajectories into survival mode for long enough that perhaps you adopted a new normal that having the time to mull these things over reveals was a diminished state of things you came to accept because it made sense for a time but now no longer serves you. The song is definitely a mood piece and despite its retro style it’s absolutely of the moment when we’ve all had to reassess and come to terms with what we’ve accepted to merely get by.
