This was not as impressive as her first two albums, but good... Jul 14, 2009
I really enjoyed Heather Nova's first two albums, but was disappointed with this release. It's definately still true Heather and has good lyrics and songs, but it did not feel as fresh or as memorable to me. I would recommend buying the first two before this one.
 Found my way to Heather's wonderful music from the most... Mar 28, 2008
...unlikely source. The TV show "Charmed" in one of the episodes, Heather was singing "Like Lovers Do" and I was hooked. Took me half an hour to find her name, let alone where to get Like Lovers Do, but after downloading the some from iTunes, I knew I had to hear more.
I now own all but one or two of her discs. Her voice is marvelous and entrancing to say the least, and her lyrics will speak to your soul. You cannot go wrong with "South" it is well worth it!

Another Outstanding Release. Feb 01, 2006
Heather Nova has a wonderful sense of how to craft a song, and this CD is full of memorable tunes. My current favorite is "Like Lovers Do", which is dazzling simple in concept but powerful in delivery. But this is not the only one; the disc is full of outstanding songs. Nobody creates moving songs like Heather Nova and South is right up there with her very best efforts.

Like Lovers Do Sep 19, 2004
Of all her albums, I could say this is the one that is probably more pop-radio-oriented... i know it's kinda like a bad thing for some but hey it never hurts to try... looks like Heather gets the same treatment with what Liz Phair decided to do with her career
anywayz, the best track here is definitely LIKE LOVERS DO... reminiscent of Heart And Shoulder... LIKE LOVERS DO is definitely one of the most amazing song I have ever heard. another favorite of mine is Virus Of The Mind... like it like it like it :)

Heather's come of age! Jul 14, 2004
This is a totally new Heather Nova, and the music will appeal to diehard Nova fans as well as newcomers. A disappointment in some of Nova's previous CDs has been the lack of new material (though her haunting lyricism is always a treat, whether recycled or not), but this one is all new and all Heather Nova. It's an older, smarter, more wry poet than the one who brought us "Sugar," but the young Heather is still audible in her signature style. Some critics have drawn parallels between Heather Nova and Cheryl Crow, do doubt based on the rappy "Virus of the Mind," but Heather Nova was making that sound when Crow was still teaching school in Missouri. Crow made it familiar and made us love it, though, and while this may be the album that gives Heather Nova the fame and fortune she deserves, it may bring with it the curse of being judged "like" other performers, even though Nova was there first. But who cares? Nova fans who are approaching middle age -- like me -- just want to kick back and hear Heather keep on rockin' to a different drummer. Anything else is just a virus of the mind.
