It worries me a bit that she's changed her aesthetic and sound so soon after the Party's Over EP. I have a feeling she just wanted to get it done with as soon as possible so she could go in a more acoustic R&B direction.

The song's fine, but the EP felt like the start of her becoming something really special.
 
The turn-around from the EP to this supposedly leading the album is definitely very odd.


Think Before You Talk is cute, but Breathe & Such A Boy are way better and had far more potential (you'd think they would have put everything behind Such A Boy since it almost went to #1 in Norway too...)
 
Just saw her at Rough Trade in Brooklyn. She's beyond adorable, and I was reminded how rock-solid her discography is.
