I don't think they're affectations, she's really got a neurological disorder or two.

Sleeper?

Elastica?

Flubber?

NME would have been all over this in '96.

Actually it probably would have been too left field for 'em.

Track 5 - Safe from Heartbreak (If You Never Fall in Love.)

Trying for the folky market now.

5: Safe From Heartbreak (if you never fall in love)

This album's not flowing very well, Smile should have been the second track so that the big intro plays off the slow burn first track.

Yes, and this one - relatively short and different in style - would make a better final track.

It's massively overproduced this.
