Gave this a listen today and I really enjoyed it! Declan definitely is way more interesting and thoughtful then you'd expect on face value on both his albums so far. Rapture in particular is a new favourite of mine, I think it's quite a common chord structure but I keep hearing RuPaul's Superstar in the chorus of Rapture which I didn't expect to get
 I do want to listen to this more as The Key To Life On Earth and Daniel, You're Still A Child have been highlights of 2020 so far. |

Yeh I’ve listened twice this week so far and it’s a lovely listen. ‘Rapture’ is dancey fun and ‘Be An Astronaut’ is wonderful McKenna doing Bowie and it’s not just because the songs about space! Even ‘Daniel’ is growing on me all of a sudden this week.

Full of tunes as I'd expect! He does like to go on random over-the-top instrumental sections towards the end of his songs though doesn't he

I liked this on first listen! I would agree with the Bowie influence and throw some Beatles and Britpop in there too - "Key To Life On Earth" is an absolutely STUNNING song and I don't know how I didn't come across it before. Worth it for that alone!

Love most of this album but Beautiful Faces and Emily have to be the two worst tracks.

I didn't pay much attention to Declan before, I too kinda wrote him off a bit on face value but this album is great, particularly The Key To Life On Earth - the last part especially

Massive improvement on the debut album (despite “Brazil” and “Isombard” both being some of the best songs in recent times in my opinion), have had it on repeat the past few weeks! “Rapture” would make a great next single.

Added it to my playlist a few weeks ago as Annie was playing it so great to see, hope the daytime playlist add it if they haven’t already.

I sort-of thought Rapture already was the next single with the lyric video he'd done for it oops! The music video is... interesting let's say.
