    From the sweeping "Surrender" and "River Song" to the gospel-tinged epic hymnal of the title track, Birdy outdoes herself with Young Heart, a pensive journey that offers some solace and a shoulder to cry on.

    It could do with an edit in places (its 16-song tracklist loses momentum on the likes of ‘River Song’ and ‘Little Blue’), but for the most part it’s a record of great beauty; one to cling to when you’re going through it and revel in when you too have made it to the other side.

    Young Heart is consistent from start to finish. While it won’t necessarily ruffle many feathers, it’s a coherent addition to an already charming catalogue from Birdy.

    While Birdy meets the warmth of the album’s production with vocal skill and sensitivity, the overall effect is a very beautiful album littered with clichés that muddle its emotional impact. Still, there are seeds of great ideas here.

    It's an exceptional album, even though the guitar moments shine, the piano ballads are the best part of this album.

    Esse é o disco da carreira de Birdy. Um verdadeiro divisor de águas na sua sonoridade e composição.

    This is Birdy's best body of work so far. Definitely secured its place as one of the best albums of 2021. Very poetic and emotional!

    Gostei. Tem uma pegada bem calma. As letras são simples mas passam a mensagem bem, só achei um pouco longo e deixa ele um pouco monótonoGostei. Tem uma pegada bem calma.
