Solid release...they brought it home this time
This song became a template they tried to follow up with "I'm Already There", which happened to be a great track in itself. I had pretty much given up on Lonestar after seeing the direction they were trying to take following their smash hit "Amazed". But the ones they released after that in the hopes of expanding their fan base were songs that were almost unbearable to listen to (take note: Let's Be Us Again and My Front Porch Looking In).

It was not until I finished previewing this album (in some site) that I decided to give em another chance and boy did they hit HOME on this as they went back to basics by making this a country album. . . well, almost. Though not as country as their first ever album, I got the same refreshing feeling I had when I listened to LeAnne Rimes' "This Woman", Faith Hill's "Fireflies" and Trisha's "Jasper County"; the feeling that country is cool again.

Given that this album still contains the power ballads that lean towards the pop/rock side (if it were not for Richie's voice), it also contains treasures like the opening cut "You're Like Comin' Home" and the no-place-like-home themed "Little Town".

Overall, this album is solid and worth buying. . . way better than "Let's Be Us Again" (darn I really don't like that album).


one of my favorites
This is a good CD it is full of heartfelt and feelgood songs.


Typical Lonestar
It is actually better than their last 2 projects. It's not that this is a "bad" project by itself. I just find that "Lonely Grill" is the standard Lonestar has to hold themselves up to, and once again it was not met. There are of course the romantic ballads, but nothing as well done as "Amazed". It strikes me as strange that the first 2 singles off this CD were originally songs done by Emerson Drive (on their "What If" CD). In my opinion, Lonestar does not measure up on these songs. They just kind of drag in comparison to the fire and passion Emerson Drive put into it. But I suppose if you haven't heard the previoius versions these songs would be capable of standing on their own, since they both are good songs in their own right. I wish Lonestar better luck on their next CD.


Lonestar's greatest album!!!
I have always been a Lonestar fan, and I always collect their newest albums through the years. Lonestar, coming home, is one of their greatest albums! The greatest songs on the album are: "You're Like Comin' Home", and "What's Wrong With That". Lonestar's band and voices's were incredibly great on this album! Once again they had another sucsessful CD! So if you're looking for a great CD, buy Lonestar, Coming Home!.


Coming Home IS Like Coming Home
I've never missed a concert whenever they are within driving distance. I always enjoy Lonestar with their down-home morals and uplifting songs.
Just watching them, one can see how much they enjoy thier work. Listening to them, one can tell how much they love their families. Where else can you find that combination, in such a dynamic group?
This Cd is the best ever. Delivering, once again, the very best of Lonestar!
They are a group for All ages, which is evident when you see the crowds at their concerts.
Lonestar is what True Entertainers are all about.
Not since Neil Diamond started have we seen a group This Good!.
