Ah, I can't help it - the last song from Stories From The City, Stories From The Sea is playing, and it's so brilliant that I had to give it a name check. We Float is just sheer perfection: an insidious, subtle, rhythm; beautifully languid playing; an elliptical lyric, yet one that carries some real emotional weight; a vocal of amazing conviction, control and clarity.
Kate, if you want to check out ONE Polly tune to gauge whether she's worthy of further investigation, make it this one! Right, I'm going to work now! Azeem in London
