Album Review: William Fitzsimmons – The Sparrow And The Crow

William Fitzsimmons – The Sparrow And The Crow


01. After Afterall (4.25)
02. I Don't Feel It Anymore (Song Of The Sparrow) (4.5)
03. We Feel Alone (4.5)
04. If You Would Come Back Home (4.75)
05. Please Forgive Me (Song Of The Crow) (4.25)
06. Further From You (4.25)
07. Just Not Each Other (4.5)
08. Even Now (4.25)
09. You Still Hurt Me (4.75)
10. They'll Never Take The Good Years (4.25)
11. Find Me To Forgive (4.25)
12. Goodmorning (4.5)


53/60 = 8.8


You can definitely sense a progression with this new William Fitzsimmons album, be it a more full sound and even a few upbeat numbers. On the other hand, William still remembers his roots and provides us with some beautiful songs about love and heartbreak. The Sparrow And The Crow is out now.
