She's been one of the most entertaining people to arrive in 2006, but already there's a bit of a Lily backlash in the air. For all those who've got her down as a one trick pony, have a listen to Littlest Things.
Lily's "only love song", in her own words, is a beautifully planitive piano ballad reminiscing about a broken relationship. The usually acutely observed lyrics are present and correct, although this is a much more gentle and poignant tale than the rather vicious Smile.
The everyday minutiae of a relationship is beautifully captured - from lying in bed drinking tea to "discovering your dirty grotty magazines", all set to a heartbreakingly poignant tune that sticks in your head for days. Very special indeed from one of the year's brightest stars.
