New songs on The Dance (in rank order)

1) Bleed to Love Her
2) Temporary One
3) My Little Demon
4) Sweet Girl

I dont dislike any of them. I think they'd be more appreciated if there were studio versions on proper albums. I wasn't fussed about BTLH until Say You Will came out then it suddenly it became a real favourite. Temporary One sounded like a return to her early writing- could have been on Bare Trees.

Exactly. And I thought they sounded quite good getting their first airing in a live setting. Kinda' reminds me of those great Green and Kirwan-era songs that never got studio treatment: Sandy Mary, Only You, When I See My Baby...

(Well, Only You got it much later, on a Kirwan album, but without Mick and John to back him up...)

Temporary One has these nice driving verse sections punctuated by a catchy chorus. To me, it sounds a lot like the guitar-driven pop from the late 90s/early 2000s. It seems, of all the new Dance songs, the most tuned-in to the spirit of the times.
