a Review by Anna Maria Stjärnell
Natalie Flanagan has a gritty, honest way of writing
songs and they sound just fine. Her voice has an
appealing rasp to it and she plays the guitar with
real feeling.
The rocker "That's the Way" is a duet
with Dennis Roach who also wrote the song. His voice
fits well with hers.
"Patience" is close in sound to Lou Reed's early
material. The song's energy doesn't stop it from being
pretty laidback.
The evocative "Long live the King" has gently strummed
guitars and a reflective vocal.
"In This Way" is a brilliant breakup song. Natalie
Flanagan"s delivery is not bitter, but just slighly
resigned. The tune is very catchy too.
The closer "Water Under the Bridge" is sad-eyed and
lovely with a gorgeous feel to it. Flanagan sounds
like a daughter to Patti Smith here.
"Let" is a brief album but there's enough good songs
to make it a real treat to hear.
