2009 sophomore album from the talented British singer/songwriter. Cupid Shoot Me is a brilliant vision of '50s Doo Wop and '60s Girl Group, re-imagined by North London's sharpest young artist. Evoking the sounds of the Shirelles, the Supremes and Carol King's teenage songwriting tenure at the Brill Building, this is both a celebration of a classic, often overlooked era of vintage pure Pop songwriting and a modern channeling of a classic sound back through a lo-fi, high concept album of Saturday night drive-in Pop. Cupid Shoot Me is a triumph that works as both introspective autobiography and as sheer, entertaining pop music. The album comprises 11 songs, all delivering a varsity-jacketed girl-gang, diner-hanging, 'will you still love me tomorrow' mix of bubblegum and heartbreak, sing-along melody and pain that re-routes the prom-night mores of Mad Men-era middle America for 21st century Britain.
