A simple way in
A version for hearing the groove, fills, and transitions more clearly while keeping the shape of the original song intact.
Start with the tricky section, not the whole song. A few good repetitions usually tell you more than one rushed pass from top to bottom.
Once it feels settled, go back to the full arrangement and check whether it still holds together. That is usually where the real answer is.
