Reviews Customer Reviews for Asking For Flowers      The Perfect Melding of Heart and Head      Rating:      "Don't be like that," she sings in "Buffalo," the wonderfully orchestrated opening song from Asking for Flowers. The poinancy of her plea is evident in a voice that is at once beautiful and bereft. No one today can fashion lyrics with more honesty and insight than Canadian, Kathleen Edwards. Her songs, with indelible snapshot imagery, world-weariness, and masterfully produced music, generate in the active listener empathy, compassion and, for those who've been wounded by Love, unmistakable recognition. Like visiting a great museum, listeners will come away from Asking for Flowers with a heightened awareness of their hearts, and their sensibilities. Great Art will do this every time, for those willing to go deep enough to experience it. And they will be left feeling thankful that Kathleen Edwards, as she did in her previous releases (Failer and Back to Me), has once more gone deep enough to create her art for us. This is a great record by a profoundly talented singer-songwriter.     Customer Reviews for Asking For Flowers Cd      Yet Another Canadian Gem      Rating:      This is my first Kathleen Edwards album and I love it! How do the Canadians continue to produce such talent? Edwards is a beautiful blend of Dido and Edie Brickell; and the guitar work and keyboard/violin is reminiscent of Mark Knopfler. The melodies are beautiful; the song writing is romantic, evocative and brings tears to one's eyes. Play it alone, quite loud, and dance!
