    I was really hoping this album to be less “pop”, however they still did a stellar job with this album. A step up from “Boyfriend” and the lyrics are probably at their darkest- which isn’t a bad thing at all. I do have some favorite tracks on this one that have made it on to my daily playlist.

    Ultimately it's a melodically joyous album and a fascinating insight into the duo's initial attempts at songwriting as they collide with their future selves. As Tegan reflected in the album's press materials.

    Hey, I’m Just Like You is a record underpinned by raw emotion, melancholy, and a quiet but clear sense of hope, making for one of the group’s most vital efforts yet.

    Hey, I'm Just Like You is an emotive and catchy pop record, but for Tegan and Sara, it's more than that: it's a message to fans to let them know they are not alone in their struggles.
