"‘Silver Cup’ succeeds due to the subtle soundtrack, strings so swoonsome, but down in the main to Emma’s expressive vocals which are conversational and melodious at once, forlorn and hopeful and inspiring a tear down a cheek which we weren’t sure was one of joy or sadness. In a word it is beautiful, a song for solitude,...where for once the feeling is of completeness."

"...Freeman’s vocal arrangement shines like polished silver. 

...Freeman also filmed a music video..., capturing the song’s impeccable air of cinematic longing–as dewy, green, and bittersweet as the melody itself."
