Glory Hallelujah

Polly Scattergood

Moorea/Ark

WE SAY

20 year-old Polly is another talented alumni of the Brit school. We were merely enjoying Glory Halleljuah until the line about "your daddy always turned a blind eye to you" over three minutes in - then we were really won over. And we were later intrigued to find out that former EMI UK MD Neil Ferris is involved.
