    If Hold My Hand was not on Jess Glynne's new album, it would be a zero for sure. The music doesn't even flow together. Hold My Hand is amazing but the rest of the album is a for sure disappointment,.

    There’s no question that Jess Glynne is a very good singer, but her debut proves her best work thus far is on songs that aren’t even hers.

    Glynne’s first solo album (which has already hit No. 1 in the UK) is a bit all over the place stylistically, but flaunts her formidable pipes and undeniable talent for injecting a lyric with vulnerability.

    Glynne's voice is a powerful weapon to secure audience submission, yet it quickly becomes a weak link, making Florence Welch sound like Vashti Bunyan. [Sep 2015, p.112]
