Over time I've heard praise here and there for Scottish musician Paolo Nutini, but I never really paid attention. Now his newest album Sunny Side Up is topping UK album charts (with Black Eyed Peas topping the singles list), and I figure it's high time I sit down and take a real listen.
Young Nutini is only 22, but he has the voice of an old soul. Something about this song "Candy" reminds me of music from decades ago, a kind of folksy sound that reminds me of the '60s, with some rockin' drum crescendos and a bit of darkness woven in. It's not particularly memorable as a tune, but it's lovely and sweet (like . . . wait for it . . . candy) while it lasts.
To take a listen and tell me what you think, read more.

I enjoyed this album but his first album was better by a LONG MILE.. you should give it a listen Buzz, you'll be mesmerized. As I was..
1My daughter and I both crush on Paolo...
2I loved "Jenny Don't Be Hasty". You should give his first album a listen too, Buzz!
3Love him! Plus...he's really cute. His voice sounds much older than he really is...
4I love him too, so cute and an even more talented musician!
5It's a very sweet song, no pun intended. But it evokes another kind of sweetness apart from candy. I really like it.
6You should check out the video for 'Candy'..trust me, you might fall in love
Plus, the rest of his album is really good, I have most of the songs on my itunes, maybe the whole album if I'm not correct, and yea it's very reminiscent of the oldies
7Oh Paolo. I listened to his first album *obsessively* for over a year (plus I live in Scotland, and you just couldn't avoid him here. I'm not complaining.), and recently had to slow down only because it now reminds me too much of a time in my life I don't like to think about. But it's so, so, SO good. You should definitely listen to it Buzz, although I like the new stuff I prefer the "bare" quality of his previous songs.
I saw him at a festival last summer; I was expecting a slightly cheesy act but he was amazing! His musicians are great, he's a fantastic performer, and I spent the whole concert dancing with the rest of the people in the front row.
(heck I was so
busy having fun I didn't even realise I'd just lost the belt to my new dress)
