    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. all of the songs were wonderful. this album really shows his artistic and emotional growth throughout the writing process. songs like ‘cherry’ and ‘falling’ are so raw, open and vulnerable, he makes the listener feel like they’re reading a page from his personal diary. overall, it’s an amazing album!

    Best album of 2019, maybe longer. From start to finish it takes you on a journey. Soulful and authentic, music that is real art and leaves you feeling emotions as if you’ve lived something just by listening.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. It's honestly such a good album, an emotional ride from start to finish. Musically it's extremely varied, with hints to 70's rock, folk, blues and a mixture of other genres, lyrically it's raw and honest in a way that makes you fall in love and feel the heartbreak and the joy and every emotion Harry tried to portray. Even if some songs feel like a faux pas when listening to them singularly (Treat People With Kindness for example, with a "Sister Act" vibe to it, or Watermelon Sugar, more pop-oriented and with very simple lyrics) if you listen to the album from top to bottom they make complete sense, fitting into one another to form a creative piece of musical storytelling.

    Fine Line is easily one of the greatest new albums of the decade. Each song tells a story and yet anyone can relate to the feelings within them. His songwriting skills are excellently displayed while he pulls in vibes similar to that of Fleetwood Mac, Bon Iver, Pink Floyd, and The Beatles while remaining authentically himself. Incredible!!!!

    Harry Styles’ second album definitely sounds different than his first. There are few songs (from HS1) that sound lot alike his second album concept but they too took me few listens to start liking them. First listen was hard for me since it barely sounds like nowadays’ mainstream music, which is a good thing, considering many artists’ put out alike music. It definitely took me few listensHarry Styles’ second album definitely sounds different than his first. There are few songs (from HS1) that sound lot alike his second album concept but they too took me few listens to start liking them. First listen was hard for me since it barely sounds like nowadays’ mainstream music, which is a good thing, considering many artists’ put out alike music. It definitely took me few listens to start liking this album. When you compare Fine Line to the 70s, which apparently what inspired HS during the process of recording, it will never match to David Bowie, Stevie Nicks, and such. It’s not necessarily a bad thing, because HS somehow still came out with original sounds

    GOLDEN’s opening has a One Direction feeling to it. It put me on nostalgic mood for a moment. Sounds a lot like most stuff he put during 1D’s days in Four era.

    WATERMELON SUGAR has ‘funny’ lyrics. Looking at how he has ‘Kiwi’ back on his first album, it seems like HS is keeping up with his fans’ inside joke of having him made an entire salad fruits as his songs title. However, it’s apparently a sexual song. This proves HS is a good songwriter with his metaphor-plays in this song. Some melodies have same feeling to “Olivia” in 1D’s old album

    ADORE YOU is the song with more “mainstream music” feeling to it. It’s catchy and easy to like. With a more upbeat melodies, it contradicts the sadness you can see through the lyrics. HS also managed to pull one of the most clever promo tactics with his music video and Eroda. It’s a good watch. Would be down to see him make a whole album visual, and continuing Adore You music video.

    LIGHTS UP is my favourite out of this album. I personally think the melodies along with lyrics, song’s art work, and music video match up really well. HS managed to represent this song greatly because of that. The only downside is it (sadly) repeats the same lyrics over and over. I think HS could’ve done better to it. All in all, it’s still a great song

    CHERRY has a sweet and heartbreaking feeling to it. I love that HS managed to show glimpses of his personality and personal memories through this song without having to tell us explicitly. The voicemail at the end proves it. A normal, simple snippet of conversation but yet seems more personal since it’s attached to HS’ memory, sorta heartbreaking to hear.

    FALLING is the expected slow song of an album. It paints a sad time during a break up perfectly. HS wrote quite numerous relatable lyrics on it. With a simple mellow melody of piano, he managed to speak his hurt to the listeners

    TO BE SO LONELY is yet another sad song with happier tone of melodies. If I had to rank all of the songs on Fine Line, this definitely will come out last. A song I’d skip on my playlists. Not my cup of tea, but would love to hear it again if HS ever made an acoustic / more mellow cover of this.

    SHE has old school rock feeling. It’s too bad that HS didn’t put more high notes on it. It seems like he’s reflecting on a one night stand memory, or a love at first sight nostalgia but was beautifully put

    SUNFLOWER VOL 6 is a very summer-y song. A little snippet of his memories going through Long Distance Relationship and unexpectedly, instead of cute or sweet lyrics, it has more sexy ones. It’s not Fine Line if it doesn’t include a good portion of sad lyrics too, a good balance to it

    CANYON MOON is a more nostalgic song. HS reminisce his memories here, with more country (?) sounds to it. An easy listen and it succeeded in making me feel nostalgic too

    TREAT PEOPLE WITH KINDNESS has the title that attracted me into buying both digital and physical albums. Felt disappointed that it doesn’t represent the title well. HS had a great opportunity of turning it to a hit, alongside Heal The World and Earth. I felt like it was a wasted opportunity. Though, it has more “feeling good” vibe that actually puts you in good mood

    FINE LINE is the closing song. Just like it’s role, it’s longer than the rest and has a closing melodies for the album. I personally think it’s way too long with the same over repeated line. However HS put a good end note through the lyrics that made it good

    An amazing album that really express true emotional feelings that a lot of albums can’t do these day. It’s not generic pop music about money and or flexing that money,and it most definitely doesn’t **** bi sexual woman or judge anyone for the way they dress,talk, ect. It’s an amazing album and that’s on tpwk!

I mean wow. Balls is what he has. Moving on to She. She is something. She is Woman’s older more badass sister. She was an absolute masterpiece. The icing on the cake was the guitar solo. I still have to replay because it’s just that GOOD. Wow. Moving on to the last song on the album, Fine Line. I don’t want to dive too deep into this song but all I can say is “we’ll be alright”.

    For lack of a better word, I love the vibe of this album. It's one of few albums that I'll listened to on repeat without getting bored; instead, I fall in love with it more each time. Harry's a lot more experimental and free and it shows. There's not a single skip.

    A true masterpiece. It reminds me of the 70s music and aesthetics. Highly recommend.

    someone said: "boring, same song over and over again... just different lyrics. liam’s lP1 otherwise is such a eclectic album!!" lmao okay girl go put your energy into streaming lp1 instead 'cause you know him and his 9.5k sales need it. anyway, i'm so proud of harry and his album. i think he's grown a lot since self-titled.

    Harry's at his best in this. This album reminds me of old classic rock and takes me back to the good times. He deserves all the success. ♥

    Free of the shackles that hobbled his debut, Styles manages to show more of his personality here, especially on the Vampire Weekend-style Sunflower, Vol. 6. It's just a shame he can't quite keep up with his ambition. [Feb 2020, p.110]

    Fine Line is entirely inoffensive, but it’s also open-ended, and maybe those questions are the reward. Maybe Harry Styles just wants to keep us guessing.

    Fine Line proves that the musician has absorbed the best lesson passed down by California’s great musicians: Don’t be afraid to take chances within a folk- or pop-rock framework, as that’s how you create iconoclastic music that endures.
