    As an album, If Words Were Flowers won’t win Harding any new fans but it is a contemplative, thoughtful exploration of modern love through the prism of traditionalist soul.

    If Words Were Flowers is Harding's most experimental record to date, touching on a wide range of genres. This radiant record serves as a reminder to look forward and the importance of love during chaotic times.

    On this generous and kaleidoscopic soul album, Harding holds nothing back. [Dec 2021, p.30]

    It's never sappy but offers a message of spiritual succor to those who need it, and it's a great, rewarding listening.
