    She's always been a sweet, pleasant crooner and Male plays to those very strengths.

    The charm and goofiness, along with her much underrated, disarmingly airy voice that endeared her to us all those years ago, is all present.

    It doesn’t all click, like when Imbruglia smooths over all the emotional grit of Damien Rice’s “Cannonball.” But her charms on Male win you over in the end.

    This Australian pop thrush broke hearts around the world back in the Nineties with her classic karaoke weeper "Torn," and Male has that same lying-naked-on-the-floor vibe.
