Tough Love but gentle sounds on Ware's new album

REVIEW: Jessie Ware -Tough Love

 

South London chanteuse Jessie Ware was the toast of the tastemakers when she dropped the 90's insipred soul of debut album Devotion back in 2012. Despite the album going Top 10 , Ware criminally failed to score a Top 40 hit.

However the album would go on to see Ware nominated for both the Mercury Music Prize and a Brit Award.

 

Two years on , she has broken her chart duck with the title track and the Ed Sheeran penned Say You Love Me , both denting the Top 40 in the past two months.
Tough Love is an enchanting opener , chilled beats and Ware's soft soothing vocal. You And I (Forever ) delivers a hypnotic chorus , one of the album's highlights.
After the brooding Cruel comes Ware's most commercial offering yet. Penned by ubiquitous album shifter Ed Sheeran , Say You Love Me is a stunningly gorgeous offering that in an ideal world would have provided her with a moment of Adele and indeed Sheeran levels of chart dominance. Ware's vulnerability shines over a delicate vocal. You'll be hard pressed to hear a more emotive love song this year.


Tough Love feels like a late night , bedroom record. This is most in evidence on the playful , sexy and shimmering Kind Of..Sometimes...Maybe.
The album gathers more pace with Want Your Feeling and Pieces. But its the albums penultimate track Champagne Kisses that provides the stunning highlight. The 80's inspired , Sade-esque jam written by US R&B heavyweight Miguel is pure bliss.

On Tough Love , Ware delivers a late night , soul pop  masterclass that deserves to see her earn Sande and Faith levels of ubiquity.
