Tell You Everything sees the song go straight into the first verse thanks to Robyn's sweet and soft vocal tone. There is something so wonderful about the songs lyrics right from the start that many people will be able to relate with. The honesty within this verse is something that I admire so much from Robyn, and the fact that it's based on her experience makes it even more wonderful. The chorus features a funky and upbeat instrumental allowing for another side of the song to come through. The lyrics are super catchy, and so magically special - I am loving the development of this song. Robyn's vocal tones throughout are everything. The second verse of Tell You Everything continues with even more honesty that has me hooked, and I have a feeling many listeners will be too. The chorus links to every single verse fantastically.  The final verse of Tell You Everything sees Robyn's softer vocal come in allowing the lyrics to shine. The fact that Tell You Everything ends with the chorus is everything especially as the guitar ends.

Hold Me Back starts with an electric guitar instrumental which compliment Robyn's sarcastic lyrical on the first verse of the song. The first verse also sees Robyn's sassy side at the forefront with this rocky edgier feel. The chorus allows the rockier feel to continue that I happen to adore thanks to Robyn's vocal tone being allowed to come across in the most natural way. The fact that the chorus is also a little upbeat at times makes for wonderful listening. The second verse of Hold Me Back continues with this darker feel suiting Robyn's style wonderfully. The lyrics are ones that get you thinking off many different situations. The final verse allows for Robyn's softer vocal tone shine whilst also seeing Robyn demonstrate her incredible ranges with the final chorus bringing the song to a wonderful end.

Sincerely Drunk Me starts with an upbeat instrumental complimenting the sassy vocal from Robyn. The first verse sees Robyn's pure honesty at the forefront of this verse as it sees the song based on personal experience. The lyrics are very catchy right from the start, and allow the song to grow without. The chorus features many upbeat funky lyrics in a softer meaningful vocals. I will be playing Sincerely Drunk Me on many road trips this year, I have a feeling thanks to the honestly catchy lyrics. The second verse of Sincerely Drunk Me continues with more honesty that brings the to life a little more that gets the listeners thinking for sure, with many being able to relate to the lyrics. The chorus links to the every single verse beautifully. The final verse of Sincerely Drunk Me is a little more quirkier with many emotions being displayed in her vocal delivery especially with Robyn's softer tone being displayed allowing the song to be bought the song together.

Daddy's Daughter has an guitar and drum instrumental throughout complimenting Robyn's vocal wonderfully throughout. Ahead of the first verse the listeners will hear an answerphone message from her Dad which gave me goosebumps before the song had even started. The first verse sees Robyn's softer vocal at the forefront of Daddy's Daughter allowing for the emotional lyrics to start coming through. Daddy's Daughter has incredibly family originated lyrics all within the first few seconds which gives the song so much life in a way that I wasn't expecting but one that I absolutely adore. 
The only words, I have explain the chorus is Honest, Truthful, and Heartfelt with a side of emotional lyrics throughout. The chorus has lyrics many girls/ ladies will be able to relate too! The second verse of Daddy's Daughter continues with about how our lives change and revolve as we grow up and start to take our own paths in life - everyone's is unique and at the right pace for them, wonderfully displayed on this verse. The final verse brings Daddy's Daughter together in the most brutally honest way that in turn allows for a lot of meaning to bring the song to life. The softer vocal tone from Robyn is everything. The chorus ends Daddy's Daughter fantastically with a wow moment.

Since Isabelle Smith  arrived on our screens back in January, Hollyoaks viewers have seen a hard-hitting storyline for her character, Frankie Osborne who since  February has had tough relationships with Osborne family especially Nancy and Jack, and looking back now you can see the cries for help with her moods, attitude, and vulnerability that have changed across the past 6 months. Frankie's used dance as her escape seeing her audition for dance school. With Darren having been the one wanting to protect Frankie with everything that has arose. One of my favourite moments was Frankie learning sign language so she could communicate with Oscar allowing people to see the caring side to the character. The first appearance of Frankie Osborne came in Wednesday's episode (4th September) where her dance place got deferred leaving her devastated as Darren continued to support Frankie seeing her become emotional about her return to school it was clear how much Darren has Frankie's best

With Hollyoaks entering the first week of their brand-new 3 episodes a week next week in typical Hollyoaks style a stunt is involved. Who doesn't love a Hollyoaks stunt? Next week will see Grandfather and Granddaughter, Jack and Frankie Osborne run into Suzanne Ashworth and JJ Osborne outside The Dog patio. With the support of Sally St Claire and Jack, Frankie confront Suzanne about her not believing her as she goes into detail about what she experienced.  This can't be an easy conversation to have, but thankful she has people she trusts around her.  Jack later adds the pressure and challenges Suzanne about what she knew.  I have a feeling that these scenes could lead to some emotional moments. Photo Credit: Lime Pictures/ Hollyoaks Inside The McQueen house are Marie Fielding, Jack, Suzanne and Frankie. Later, Leela Lomax breaks the news of the accident in The Dog to The Osbornes and Tony Hutchinson as Darren Osbornes races to his daughter, Frankie and father, Jack. Question re
