Corrine Bailey Rae's vocal is transformed on The Sea. The sunshine soul of her debut is replaced by spirited rock, folk and jazz tributes to her late husband and it’s a sensational outpouring of grief, love and steely resolve. The Sea opens with its most affecting moment—“Are You Here” is gorgeous, rollicking and overpowering—before perfectly pitched, bittersweet memories of their love story play out. From the intercontinental cuteness of “Paris Nights / New York Mornings” to the sweet sensuality of “Feels Like The First Time", it’s entirely enveloping.
