    Although Key possesses some lovely moments - an intrigue-filled Fire, the gothic synth-pop of My Right A.R.M., a tender World Without End - many of these re-dos possess a curious lack of energy. [Dec 2024, p.108]

    While Key seems worthwhile as an exploration of how songs can grow and change over time, just like people, it's unlikely any of the songs are transformed enough to warrant a fan exodus from the originals. On top of that, the selections' mix of popular and lesser-known make it a lackluster hits collection. What may win over some listeners, however, is its knowing, somewhat ominous tone and its function as a songwriting showcase.

    The new interpretations confirm the timeless quality her songs possess, offering new perspectives on youth as now seen through experienced eyes. It can only be hoped that she has a suite of new songs up her sleeve, for on this evidence she remains one of the very finest vocalists in British pop music.
