“Conqueror” - Estelle provides some life coaching on this track, filling the song’s slow-build verses with words of overcoming obstacles and weathering storms before the coming of the sun. And as if her heart has sprouted wings, Estelle sends the inspiration-filled chorus, “I am a conqueror,” up like a rocket.  (Photo: Eugene Gologursky/Getty Images for Haute Living)“Something Good/Devotion (Passion Interlude)" - Delving into gospel piano, thumping bass and joyous rhythms of deep house music, the U.K. songstress sings of fighting back from a bad relationship to reconnect with the goddess within her. “I was hurt for so long,” she sings. “Doesn’t matter who was right / Doesn’t matter who was wrong / All that matters is I’m back where I belong.” (Photo: Rick Diamond/Getty Images)
