I don’t agree with this, I feel like that’s too serious and heavy for her. I feel like she needs playful, fun pop.I like the Xmas track but I think if we’re being fair it benefits from having no expectations on it.
In terms of her general sound - Natalie Imbrulia’s Left of the Middle, Michelle Branch’s The Spirit Room, and Kelly Clarkson’s Breakaway should have been the blueprint for her debut. Heck I’d even throw Lindsay Lohan’s Speak in there!
We’re overdue another guitar led pop girlie!
