"A welcome reminder that the island's songwriting tradition is in safe hands. "Sun Is Shining" is essential.
"The bassline alone on "Sun Is Shining" justifies the listen; the lyrics and arrangement just sweeten the deal.
""Sun Is Shining" is exactly the kind of song that reminds you why this music endures — vocal conviction over a riddim built to last.

[Intro] Mmm... yeah... uh-huh [Verse 1] Silver moon over the harbour wall Sitting here, hearing your sweet name call You used to be the rhythm of my heart Now the riddim just fall apart [Chorus] Come back to me, sweet love, come back to me Come back to me, sweet love, can't you see Every night I'm waiting by the candlelight Hoping you'll return to me tonight [Verse 2] The sound system playing our song And I'm wondering where it all went wrong Maybe time will heal what we let break Maybe morning brings what evening takes
