Paul possesses a wistfully gentle voice, a bit like
John Denver, while a clever pop arrangement on "You Will Be My Rock" pulls together an undulating, fretless, sighing string synth and even some hints of shrieking sax in an impressive arrangement. "Summer Skies" is a melodic gem with a shuffling rhythms and a languid sun-kissed vibe. With a less budget line production it truly could be a mainstream smash. "Breath Of Fresh Air" has some funky programming and Paul's light as silk vocal gliding effortlessly across the groove. Only the acoustic and simplistic "God's Children", which I guess is intended as a children's song, seems out of place here. But overall this album is an impressive showcase of a serious talent.
