Hawk Nelson Is My Friend [edit]
by Hawk Nelson | Genre: Pop/Rock | Release Date: April 01, 2008
 

Since 2004, music lovers have enjoyed a real camaraderie with rising pop-punk band Hawk Nelson, helping the quartet sell nearly half a million albums, land personal appearances on major television and motion picture projects, and gain high-profile song placement ("Bring 'Em Out") with NBC's NFL Sunday Night Football campaign. "Going into this record, we sat down and thought about how we've always had this mentality of not so much winning fans as making friends," says frontman Jason Dunn. "We want to be clear that we're all about being on the same level as the audience." Now the true bond of friendship between the group and others continues to strengthen, mature, and be more overtly celebrated than even before with the Ontario-originated act's third Tooth & Nail release, Hawk Nelson Is My Friend. For all of their adventures and successes thus far, the members of Hawk Nelson still see themselves as "four guys just trying to make it," says Dunn. "We'll always be working toward that, trying to be THE band and write the best songs possible." Hawk Nelson Is My Friend most definitely lives up to that goal.

a very fun, friendly album | Posted July 23, 2008
This albums was fun, upbeat, and a great addition to the Hawk Nelson collection. I know some people say Hawk Nelson's music doesn't go deep enough into the Christian faith, but I personally really like their music style. It's very easy to listen to, and when I listen to this album, I wanna get up and dance!

The song "I Still Miss You" talks about the grieving for a deceased grandmother. It is a very good song that touches on Jesus being "bigger than the cancer in you." It's a different and softer version of most of HN's music, but good nonetheless.

The single "Friend Like That" is very catchy, upbeat, fun, and happy. This is one of the album's songs that makes you want to jump up and down. It talks about God being the greatest friend anybody could have.

"Let's Dance" is another fun one talking mainly about defying what the world tells you to do and just doing what you feel comfortable with. Part of the chorus says, "I don't want to live, like someone else I'm happy in my skin, bein' myself. Let's dance."

"One Little Miracle" is another one of my favorites. It features Amy Grant. This song talks about having faith and how one little miracle can get you through tough times.

Overall, I enjoyed this album very much. The lyrics were deeper and more mature, while Hawk Nelson's same energetic sound returned once again.

A Fresh Face | Posted June 27, 2008
Hawk Nelson did not dissapoint their friends with "Hawk Nelson Is My Friend".
Comming off of their previous releases "Letters to the President" and "Smile..." this album has a much punkier sound but it also has a few slower tracks, making for a pretty good mix of songs. "Zero" is my favorite one by far; but the acoustic duet of "One Little Miracle" with Amy Grant comes in at a close second. This is a great release and definetly worth a listen.

New but... | Posted June 27, 2008
I'm a rather new fan of the band, but I love this cd. It's perfect for a road trip, making you want to sing along, or dance along for that matter. "You Have What I Need," is probably one of my favorites.
