It's been compared quite a bit to '80s Fleetwood Mac. Do you hear that?
"Well, I wasn't aware of that when I was making it, but in hindsight it makes sense. I think some of the sounds I choose and the way I feel when I sing a song often harks back to my childhood. 'Daniel' is a nostalgic song about my teenage years and I was brought up on a lot of Fleetwood Mac - my mum and I used to sing 'Gypsy' and 'Rhiannon' in the car! I think without even realising it I drew on those influences, but it certainly wasn't conscious."
