Did We Live Too Fast

    Overall, this is a generally charming debut with a very stylized sound and some solid material within.

    Beautiful things come out of this unlikely pairing, and it just goes to show that good stuff can come out of what is considered to be a box office turkey.

    The result is not unlike Lana Del Rey, but with fun instead of fatalistic gloom.

    Classical/new-age strains mash against underlying funk beats with this record's favorite motif being sophisticated Europop twisted around throbbing rhythms sourced from sound sample slices, giving it a feel that falls somewhere between Mike Patton's Lovage, Peeping Tom and the pseudo-highbrow commercials that Chanel and Lindor use to hawk fragrance and milk chocolate.

    Winstead is a competent singer, but most of I Love You's tracks draw attention to distractingly bad lyrics or are woefully devoid of personality.
