In these dark times, everybody’s trying to keep our spirits up by telling us that the world is still a beautiful place. Well, it bloody well isn’t. Nevertheless, full marks to Holly Lerski for trying her charming best. Having reverted to her real name after two fine albums as Angelou, she’s come up with a record of gorgeous, jangling, sunshine melodies on which she even manages to sound cheerful while singing titles such as “Everyone’s Lonely” and “In The Dark”. For would-be ostriches everywhere.
