Sounds Like: Things that some people have said:

"gorgeous vocals - i found the construction of this song flawless and very pretty. bring it on - was very easy to listen to and sounded great on da radio" - Rosie Beaton

"I really like a lot of things about this song. It starts modestly, but the Melissa's voice hooks you in. It kinda builds, then drifts away, then builds again. But never crashes in which you kind of expect. Unpredictable is a good word for this song." - Richard Kingsmill

"A sweet pop song that blends uplifting melodies and driving percussion with just enough minor chords to stop it roaming in to twee territory. Nice work from a brand new Brissie act." - Dan Buhagiar
