Oddly, there’s a lovely eerie feel that comes from the combination of clean crisp drums/percussion and keys that sound like they’ve been stolen from your dreams! Add to that the odd guitar lick and some spoken word from the fabulous Pablo Raybould, and some sensuous stunning vocals closing the album, and you have an album just as special as it’s predecessor (which is a tough task, as it was in my top albums of that year!)
