The second 45 from Got A Story to Tell offers up two staff favourites. The moody, mid-tempo move My Heart is Drowning opens with a foreboding, echo-drenched drip that lurks behind singer Josh Laes tale of a forlorn lover whose past mistakes have left him drowning in despair. With its brooding piano and gritty bassline this song would track well in classic R&B and soul circles with equal command. Stuck in the Mud also leans towards an earlier R&B sound but with a subtle tinge of gospel via the call and response vocals that permeate this impeccably heartfelt composition.
