After 31 has a soft and sweet instrumental which adds this wonderful layer to the song before any lyrics have been sung.
The first verse sees Alex's softer vocal range at the forefront allowing for this really heartfelt message about life within the lyrics that instantly got me thinking about my own relationship with my mum. The emotion alone within this first verse has an incredibly sentimental feel having me in tears many times. After 31 is a life song that everyone is able to relate with one way or another with that person who bought them up!
The chorus features some of the most wonderfully thought about lyrics that see another dynamic bought to this songs meaning in a way that allowed me to find a new appreciation for the lyrics, and how the song is one of growth as we grow up. The crisp vocal from Alex during this verse is amazing allowing for the listeners to closely take in every single emotion.
The second verse of After 31 continues with even more life lessons being shared that I have to admit were the most relatable for me being near those ages hearing it in a song, I realised how much I have achieved in life despite feeling like I haven't. Thank you, Alex for allowing me to believe in myself with these lyrics and messages.
The final verse sees After 31's key lyrics being repeated in a much softer and crisp vocal going into the chorus ending the song fantastically.

During tonight's episode (13th November) of Coronation Street viewers were treated to a series of flashbacks this time in the frame are Lauren Bolton and Max Turner who only recently got back together are the ones I have been most excited to see having said to friends for weeks they definitely have to be involved somehow if they were suspects thinking back to everything she's been through.  However, Monday's episode (11th November) Lauren's body language dramatically change in my opinion, and Max's side eye following Ed Bailey buying him a drink, but it was Sabrina Adetiba's sudden reappearance that left me with even more questions. The opening sequence was brilliant with the level of added dialogue as they recapped at the suspects, but Carla Connor's look towards Lauren Bolton during the flashback which entered to real time was interestingly delivered camera angles. With Lauren's son Frankie set to be discharged viewers saw young mum Lauren became incre...
