"This followup is a brooding, often angry set that deals with everything from politics to love, death and personal tragedy, with a couple of powerful traditional songs added in ...

The sense of impending disaster is heightened by her own Icarus and the menacing treatment of the traditional Lord I Don't Want to Die in the Storm. Impressive and original".

In two years she's blossomed into a challenging songwriter and a richly involving singer with mature and accomplished arrangements sweltering in strings and Stu Hanna's distinctively bold production technique. Serious notice of intent is announced at the outset by a single drum beat before - sounding like a brooding cross between June Tabor and Nico - she delivers her opening lines "We sung the songs of Safka/Candles in the rain" and you're instantly intrigued. What the hell does a 23-year-old know about Melanie Safka anyway? It's a song of one generation's failed dreams - and another generation's prevailing hopes ... The frothy folk funster has gone with the blue hair. Lucy Ward has grown up...".
