The hard work has paid off for Lucie Silvas, who, after years of hovering round the edge of the charts, has made a seemingly permanent breakthrough. The advantage is that she can give a good live performance, as witnessed this year on chat shows such as Parkinson.

By my calculation this is the fourth single to come off the Breathe In, and follows its predecessors in its suitability for radio, covering as it does a potential break up and its implications.

Silvas gives an assured performance, although this is nowhere near as memorable as Breathe In or What You're Made Of. It does, however, confirm her standing as a perfectly competent songwriter, and is unlikely to harm her ever-increasing fan base.
