    I don't know if this is an EP, an album, a mini-album, a mixtape, whatever; I just know this **** is banging! Alfie has a promising future in the scene if he's not eaten by the Majors (as an independent, he works well). Sure, there are songs that resemble the very Jamiroquai style neo-disco ("Wait, I Lied", "Forever Isn't Long Enough"), a tribute to Tears for Fears ("Everybody's Gonna LoveI don't know if this is an EP, an album, a mini-album, a mixtape, whatever; I just know this **** is banging! Alfie has a promising future in the scene if he's not eaten by the Majors (as an independent, he works well). Sure, there are songs that resemble the very Jamiroquai style neo-disco ("Wait, I Lied", "Forever Isn't Long Enough"), a tribute to Tears for Fears ("Everybody's Gonna Love Somebody") and a lo-fi not successful to conclude the project ("One More Day"). His proposal is a bit original in sound in contrast to what the market is doing, but it is the essence of Alfie that keeps all this alive. I have no doubt that better plans will come for him this year.

    Comparando los demás trabajos discográficos de Alfie nos damos cuenta del gran avance que el ha dado, "Forever Isn't Long Enough" sin duda es de los mejores álbumes que van hasta el año, tanto como su mejor album, Shady, Film Scene Daydream y To You son unas canciones superiores a las demás

    While Forever Isn’t Long Enough doesn’t venture far off the beaten track with its lyrical content, the musical arrangement and writing on each and every song is a joy to listen to. Templeman’s songwriting is unmatched amongst his fellow 18-year-old musicians, displaying both a successful present and a bright future.

    Overall, a very mature collection of sing-alongs. Templeman has proven that he is evolving as an artist. This is going to be a big year for this young crooner.

    The singer-songwriter’s most comprehensive release to date, turns up the production slickness while sacrificing none of his affable, boyish charm.
