Acclaim for 'Let It Go':

'A masterclass in grown-up soul-pop, delivered full of heart and personality' - Guardian

'Let It Go comes with meaning. Elegantly conceived, the slouchy semi-grooves are etched with mainstream radio in mind... Nothing here will do anything to lessen the great swathes of public affection directed at its protagonist' - Observer Music Monthly

'Elegant pop-soul with a delicate, very English quality' - The Telegraph

'On Let It Go, Young sounds like a pop star utterly in control' - Time Out

'A consummate lesson in how to produce radio friendly pop' - Independent on Sunday
