Cullum's virtues are a remarkable relaxation (which makes music-making, even in a sophisticated studio recording, sound like fun to him), a youthful bounce that makes his work engagingly airy and light, and a hipness of timing that marks him out from many of his competitors on this crowded stage. Twentysomething is also very shrewdly produced (by George Benson and BB King producer Stewart Levine) to keep the more luxurious of additional instruments (strings, flutes, horn ensembles) in a subtly supportive role that always leaves Cullum's forthright, unadorned and already characterful voice way out in front. The traditional twentieth anniversary gift is china – a few plates, maybe a cup and saucer or two. Modernists apparently prefer platinum, which seems like a far more appropriate way to celebrate the twentieth anniversary of Jamie Cullum’s Twentysomething, first released in October 2003 and now extended and re-released in double LP format. In October 2014, Cullum appeared in a comedy sketch with Jimmy Carr and Daisy Lowe, which was made for Channel 4's The Feeling Nuts Comedy Night to raise awareness of testicular cancer.
