Pictured on the cover of Lia Mice’s just released new album I Love You is a classic car with its roof caved in, as if it did a 360 in an accident or had a 1000 pound anvil dropped on it. What happened to the car isn’t important, but the state that it’s in is…

If you miss All Saints, chances are you’ll fall head over heels in love with this gorgeous gem, just as we did, being that its beats and melody would seem to be a deliberate homage to Saints’ “Pure Shores.” That aside, “Can’t Stop The Love” is a lovely mid-tempo number with a positive message and…
