Shallow

I keep seeing this on 'best of' lists and I honestly think people are just copying each other's homework at this point. There's nothing here that hasn't been done better elsewhere. The emperor has no clothes and the praise is baffling.

A few tracks could have been cut without losing anything, but what's here is largely excellent. The production is gorgeous and the performances are top-notch. One of the better albums I've heard recently.

Worth a listen but doesn't demand repeat plays.
