Fine Line Album, A Harry Styles' Broken Heart Expression
JAKARTA - Harry Styles' second album has finally been released to the public. Fine Line is the title song chosen to represent this album.
Since the album's announcement in early November, fans have been wondering what concept Styles will bring to his new album. To Capital FM radio, Harry Styles briefly explained the selection of the title Fine Line, as one of his favorite songs.
“It describes me about the process of making it and how this album has different types of songs. This is one of my favorite songs, ”Styles told Capital FM, Friday, December 13.
The Fine Line album contains 12 tracks composed by Harry Styles and his co-authors, namely Kid Harpoon, Jeff Bhasker, Greg Kurstin, Amy Allen, Mitch Rowland, Sammy Witte, Ilsey, and Tyler Johnson.
Their harmony in composing track by track in the Fine Line album makes this album a continuous story. Before releasing Fine Line in full, Harry Styles hooked listeners with the soul song Lights Up.
Previously, he released Watermelon Sugar which was thick with an 80's side. Finally, there is the song Adore You along with the story of Eroda, which is a fictional island in Adore You.
A few months ago during an interview with Rolling Stone, Styles described the album Fine Line with heartbreak and sex.
Styles expresses his feelings on every track of his song. Golden is the opening track of the Fine Line album which will start the story.
Stories about fear of being left behind because a heart will be broken are Styles' mainstay in this track. Jumping on the fifth track, Cherry, becomes the song that best describes Styles feelings for Camile Rowe, the French model whom he cheated on.
Cherry is Styles' outpouring of feelings of homesickness and pieces of memories together. We don't want it to sound like gossip, but the line is "Does he take you walking round his parents' gallery?" full of who Styles mean in Cherry.
Plus, at the end of the song, we can hear a recording of a woman's voice speaking in French vaguely.
The Falling track is also Styles' way of talking about loss. The song To Be So Lonely swiftly made room for Styles to be honest - that this ending relationship was his fault. The lyrics of "Don't Call Me Baby" seemed to connect Cherry's tracks and lead to the same person.
The eighth track, She, has the same vibe as the song Two Ghosts from Harry Styles' first album. The song with the longest duration on the Fine Line album seems to give the nostalgic side of the first album.
Quoting from Rolling Stone, the track Sunflower, Vol. 6 has a laid-back side and this song can be juxtaposed with Vampire Weekend.
Meanwhile, the Canyon Moon track serves as a container for Harry Styles about homesickness - whether it be a person or a place. Surely this song is suitable to listen to when on a long trip.
On the Treat People With Kindness track, it is again filled with harmonization of a coherent vocal background. The words Treat People With Kindness have been a slogan that Styles have used in his concert tour merchandise for a long time.
Not a campaign, but Styles often uttered this sentence - including teaser for the arrival of the album Fine Line. The final track and ending of this album is Fine Line, a song that has its own meaning for Styles.
In the verse of the lyrics "We'll be a fine line, we'll be alright" which he sang over and over in the chorus became a reminder for Styles in the process of healing his heart as well as closing the book of this story.
Overall, the Fine Line album has a few songs that are easy to forget about but a few others will stay in your head for some time to come - depending on how much you listen to the album.
Styles is not only a big star but also a man with a heart. For him, heartache doesn't always have to be closed tightly, but there are times when it needs to be told, shared and composed into a beautiful album - making the Fine Line album an honest Harry Styles work in music. The Fine Line album can be listened to both physical and digital releases.
