  When the Pawn - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
When the Pawn is the second album by American singer-songwriter Fiona Apple, released by Epic Records in the United States on November 9, 1999 (see 1999 in music).
The first single, "Fast as You Can", was fairly popular and received moderate radio and video airplay.
It charted within the top twenty on the U.S. Billboard Modern Rock Tracks chart and became Apple's first top forty hit on the UK Singles Chart.

I think she is two steps beyond those girls who copy Tori Amos, even when she got fame as a piano diva with angry lyrics.
In fact, even when I was very sceptical because of the unnecessary long title (after all, these days may 'artists' do such ridiculous things to get both media and audience's attention and sell their records), I have been reading some reviews that qualified this record good or excellent.
The pros of this record are, among others, the fact that the sound got more complex and mature (and even a bit more daring).

But once the hype died down and shifted to other musicians (America, did it really have to be Sugar Ray?), we were left waiting for the rare talent to storm back onto the music scene.
The recent release of When the Pawn comes during another dark chapter of American music.
As a result, Pawn is immediately grabbing, and instead of fading upon further plays, it reveals more with each listen, whether it's a lyrical turn of phrase or an unexpected twist in the arrangement; what's more, Apple has made it as rich emotionally as it is musically.

Japanese edition of the hit vocalist's 1999 & second album with two bonus tracks added, 'Never Is A Promise' & her cover of The Beatles' classic 'Across The Universe' that she contributed to the soundtrack to the hit 1998 film 'Pleas antville'.
Her lyrics, though as interesting as on TIDAL and as full of biblical guilt and post-teenage bourgeois insecure and angry lust, this time spill over with forced intellectualism.
What was already a perfect album (I rate 'When the pawn' the finest album of 1999) is made better by the release of this Import CD.

 Fiona Apple - When the Pawn Hits the Conflicts He Thinks Like a King...
Fiona Apple may have been grouped in with the other female singer/songwriters who dominated the pop charts in 1996 and 1997, but she stood out by virtue of her grand ambitions and considerable musical sophistication.
It's evident that not only have Apple's ambitions grown, so has her confidence — few artists would open themselves up to the ridicule that comes with having a 90-word poem function as the full title, but that captures the fearless feeling of the record.
Apple doesn't break from the jazzy pop of Tidal on Pawn, choosing instead to refine her sound and then expand its horizons.

 Fiona Apple - When The Pawn Hits The Conflicts He Thinks Like A King... (1999)
Instrumentally, Apple didn't do much more than add atmosphere (the song's really too simple to withstand much messing around without falling apart), but her vocals added a new jazz influence, playing around with the melody and the rhythm.
When The Pawn Hits The Conflicts He Thinks Like A King takes that as a launching pad and adds to it a musical and lyrical complexity to match.
I probably shouldn't be so cynical, though, since Apple's muses may not have given her label many options (the album's opening song has a chorus that declares "You're all I need" while the singer sounds tormented beyond belief just by making such an admission).

When the Pawn Hits fulfills the promise of Fiona Apple's debut, Tidal, a strong statement given that her first outing was one of 1996's most exciting collections.
When the Pawn Hits picks up where her eye-opening debut, Tidal, left off.
Cohesive, gutsy, and finely honed, When the Pawn Hits pummels any notions of a sophomore slump for 1996's most promising newcomer.

 When the Pawn - 1a
Alpha hit the field, taking up formation much like a professional hockey-team: Guardian was center, the twins pulling winged defense, Puck offense, and Sas backing as goalie.
The shots were small, but densely concentrated, everyone took hits.
I guess I was mistaken." She'd hit a nerve, she could see the mask slip.

We always come to the conclusion that her first is better because none of the songs on When the Pawn compared to Criminal.
When the Pawn seems completely like the song Criminal, blended with the hauntingness of Shadowboxer, and with a deeper toned Fiona.

Of the many women who came of age during the "Lilith Fair" age of the 90s, none was as intellectually precocious or as emotionally scarred as Fiona Apple.
Her sophomore album, WHEN THE PAWN revealed Apple to be a fiercely independent artist who jealously guarded the sanctity of her creative expression.

From what I understand, this appeared as the title track to the British release of Fiona Apple's album When the Pawn.
If anyone could confirm this, I would appriciate it.
In any case, she wrote it as a poem and read it aloud at a concert, which is how I first heard it.
