I find it an odd mix of both charming and irritating with my opinion swinging depending on the song. In a track such as ‘In the Sun’ the vocal weaknesses in the chorus are somewhat distracting but in ‘Me and You’ both the song and her voice maintain a general aura of loveliness – with a refrain of ‘you got to be kind to yourself’ and a nice slide guitar in the mix. more »
