Light at the End of the World

The Album Opens with 'sunday Girl' Where the Simplicity of the Lyrics and Melody Are Merged to a Swirl of Electronics with Stunning Effect. Track after Track, from the Hopeful 'golden Heart' to the Regretful 'fly Away', the Songs Are Matched Beautifully to the Emotional Sonic Backdrops that Rise and Fall on Bell's Breathy and Assured Vocals. 'when a Lover Leaves You', the Penultimate Track, Perhaps Best Sums Up Spirit of the Entire Album. With Bell Torn Between Two Lovers, Yearning for the One, and Worried for the Other, Clarke Devises a Gorgeous Synth-pop Samba to Ease the Pain. 'dance Away the Heartache,' to Coin a Phrase, Indeed. Classic Erasure.
