    For all the craft she shows, for all her ability to move and for all the promise of the zinging, Indian-inflected Growing Pains, Birdy is undone by an unwillingness to change her musical pace. [Jun 2016, p.110]

    With more life, richer texture, and an inspiring attitude, Beautiful Lies is Birdy's declaration that she is more than able to make her mark in the big leagues and join the ranks of the alternative pop pantheon.

    Even if the Eastern influence isn’t overwhelming there, the rest of Beautiful Lies flows together smoothly, perfectly soothing, never quite reinventing the water wheel, but never quite having to.
