Hawksley Working My World!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Lover/Fighter (Audio CD)
This is an album I heard only the first 10 seconds of before purchasing it. It caught my ear and now that I own it, I can hear it around me all the time. It's lush ("Smoke Baby"), it's fun ("We Will Still Need A Song"), it's sexy ("Tonight Romanticize The Automoblie"), it's poetic ("Autumns Here"), and Hawksley has a strong and beautiful voice that can't be denied. You'll be sharing it with everyone you know. Oh, and did I mention that this lovely man is Canadian?

Unexpected but lovely.,
By daedalic (Vancouver) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Lover/Fighter (Audio CD)
I own all Hawksely's CD's and bought this one the first day it come out.This one surprised me in how mainstream friendly it was in comparison to the others, but it is still pure Hawksely. Joyful even in it's sorrow, beautiful in it's fighting spirit. We will always need songs like these. Buy it, keep an open mind and love it forever. Oh yeah, if you don't have Almost a Full Moon find it and buy it before Christmas comes!

Beautiful...,
By Alan Ranta (Tiny Mix Tapes) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Lover/Fighter (Audio CD)
Possibly the first album I've heard start with the word "f*ck," Lover/Fighter is the most emotional work of rock music I've had the immense pleasure of hearing since Nirvana's heyday. I believe with all I have left for a heart that this is Hawksley's Sea Change (Beck) and possibly even his Pet Sounds. While there is not one real dance floor tune like "Striptease," I'm beginning to suspect that was a one off anyway, the presence of any obvious singles as such would only detract from the poetic quality and sensitive fragility of this moving piece.I originally heard most of this album in the background at a music store and didn't really think much of it at the time. That taste set me back in buying this album a few months but as soon as I did, I couldn't turn it off. It gets better every time I hear it and, once you get over the fact there aren't any stripper staples to be found, you'll pick up all the little touches and signatures that make each song unique in their common goal of creating a work of pure singer-songwriter rapture. This is the type of art that lives for decades. Give it a couple listens. You will thank yourself.
