"Thank for your Love" is a nice EP of Anthony but not more then that, I hope that the following album will be more interesting!

As a fan of his beautiful music I was a bit disappointed about this EP, the songs are not what I was hoping for.

Still a great artist with a beautiful voice!!

3.0 out of 5 stars Not his most shining EP, September 9, 2010

This review is from: Thank You For Your Love (Audio CD)

Antony has returned with a collection of songs which meander with quiet reverie. "Thank you for your love" is a brass infused piece which would work if only for the repetitious twenty-times-too- many "I thank you" freak out at the end. "You Are the Treasure" spans just over 2 minutes and amounts to a mediocre meditation on themes Antony revisits again and again. "My Lord My Love" is arguably the most beautiful and haunting song on the EP. It harks back to the older, tortured work titled "I Am A Bird Now." For Antony to cover Bob Dylan and John Lennon for the last two tracks "Pressing On" and "Imagine" is an interesting -- if not odd -- choice. Both songs carry the same tone as the rest of the EP. While "Another World" and "The Lake" were EPs with a wider range, this one sort of plateaus from the very beginning.
