    Half of the album is really good, love the 90's throwback - however the other half hovers somewhere between bland and downright terrible. Which is unfortunate! Looking forward to more from her, though.

    Standout tracks include "Hideaway", "Giant In My Heart" & "Losin' My Mind"

    It's still on the dancefloor showstoppers--No Enemiesz, Giant In My Heart--that she really comes alive. [Jan 2015, p.127]

    Her smarter, odder lines (“Put your hand on my piano”) stand out amid the clubbing clichés, though her high, slightly strangled, often shouted vocals don’t.

    It’ll definitely prove a little too keen on mid-1990s house beats for younger ears, but it’s a sure-footed statement of intent from a top newcomer amongst 2014’s pop crowd who, on this evidence, is going to contend for further number ones in the coming years.
