Gorgeous Songs From A Genuine Artist
For many people, Antony's arrival is associated with his stunning "I Am A Bird Now" album, but this is far from the beginning of his story. Not only his prior -and first- album is rather impressive and mature- but also, specially if you live in New York, you may know that he's been presenting his work for at least ten years.
This EP consist of three gorgeous tunes, each of which is reason enough for getting this disc. Included are the first single from "I Am A Bird Now," Fistful of Love, and two songs never released before: The Lake and Horror Has Gone.
Of the three, the most remarkable one is The Lake, a song based on an Edgar Allan Poe's poem, and recorded in the studio with Kevin Barker and Julia Kent. Please note that, as it's erroneously mentioned elsewhere in this page, this is not the live version recorded in London at St. Olave's Church, a couple of years ago. So, if you have that one already, buying this EP will give you the only other recorded version of this song. By the way, both are worth owning.
At least as far as I'm concerned, the term "artist" is awarded to many people either too quickly in their careers or without much consideration for the level of achievement and continuous dedication it might entail. In Antony Hegarty's case, the term may not be used often enough.
