The mood of the piece is sad as it is about her brother going to war. This is conveyed by the tone as it has low notes and is quite slow. She has kept the music simple with her voice being accompanied by a piano which makes it sound more real and emotional. "Disconnected" is the name of the song and shows the relationship between her and her brother now that he has moved away.
The song reminds me of Adele 'Someone like you' as they both convey feelings about a relationship breaking down whether it's an ex boyfriend or a brother. They both sing accompanied with a piano and let the emotions of the song come through to the audience. This is kept simple and works well. If it was up beat it wouldn't have the same effect and wouldn't work as well because the song would loose meaning.
I would class this song as acoustic soul. This is because its only her voice and one other instrument, in this case a piano. The lyrics and the way in which she sings also make it soul because of the emotion.
