As the title would suggest, ‘Diva Lady’ sees Neil Hannon return to the flamboyant form that helped make his name a decade ago. Though easy on the ear like much of Hannon’s more popular work, there’s little exciting or lasting about his latest effort. As ever he hands up disposable pop, driven by throwaway lyrics, delivered with his ‘ain’t I clever’ Wildean phrasing.

The boy Hannon can always be relied on to cobble together a cracking radio-friendly tune, and this is gladly no exception. As ever, Hannon’s honeyed vocals, ambitious production and expressive, masterful song-writing combine to stunning effect, and the result is an enchanting, catchy number that should serve only to consolidate Neil’s national treasure status.
