    Harry Edward Styles is an icon. This album is perfection. That’s it. That’s the tweet.

    Favourite album of 2019. A variety of songs that flow well together as a cohesive piece. My favourite track changes everytime I listen but I'm particularly fond of sunflower, vol 6 and falling. An album about heartbreak, sadness, finding yourself, happiness and fruit.

    The entire album is absolutely amazing. Every song is carefully crafted and poses individual ideas and themes that all form a cohesive and beautiful story and present emotions in an extremely masterful way.

    Not to sound like a music snob, but I’m an opera singer and I really have a hard time listening to most popular music. I don’t like auto tuned, highly produced, commercial sounds.

He’s also not worried about fitting into a particular genre, which is refreshing and allows for a lot of creativity in his music. My two favorite songs from the album are “Falling” for its raw honesty and vocals and “Watermelon Sugar” for its instrumentation and delivery, and really just because it makes me happy. Give the album a listen if you haven’t already. You won’t be sorry.… Expand

    I think Fine Line is a great album. I believe that it was extremely personal and emotional. Harry did great. He is really exploring new ways to enhance and grow, not only in his music but as a person. I feel like this album is a great example of that. Harry is genuinely creative and I think he worked really hard on this album. His songs were also very interesting to hear at first and nowI think Fine Line is a great album.

    Fine Line, from top to bottom, is definitely a beautiful piece of work and Style's finest work to date. With a broader variety of sounds than his previous work, includes his deepest cuts in Cherry and Falling, but also radio friendly bangers like Lights Up, Watermelon Sugar and Adore You. The result is an eclectic mix of genres glued together by his stunning vocal performances.

    It’s a great album with 12 soulful songs that really touch the heart. Putting his vulnerability out there, Harry gave us-his fans- a glimpse of who he truly is, as a human. Thank you, H

    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.
