About "breakfast on the roof":
...Great, groovy soulful pop.
The horn-laden intro grabs the listeners attention from the off, the groovey soul beat evoking assocations to, amongst others, latter days The Jam. This is a feel good track, jumpy and bouncy instrumentation combined with smooth, soulful vocals. The backing vocals are especially effectful, accentuating the vocal melody and the overall soulful feel. Lyrically, this stears refreshingly clear of any cliché. Overall a really good performance...
About "cradle of love":
...Beautiful, sexy vocals. The lyrics are poetic, bordering on that jazz-style prose similar to artists like Jill Scott. Professional, high quality sounding performance. These are top notch musicians!...
... love the quality of this singer''s voice. It''s clear and unaffected and full of ability to get the words across in the coolest way. The lyrics are creative and jazzy. The instrumentation keeps you interested . . all the parts, piano, drums, bass. Again I will say . . good lyrics .. this is a good song and I am glad I got to review it.
