Everybody's got a story, but not everyone can tell it like Amanda
I have all three and I happen to like the fact that they are all different. I love this CD and I can't wait for her next one. Amanda shares a unique perspective with each new CD and I find that exciting. So many artist are predictable to the point of boredom, but not Amanda. She keeps reinventing herself. Frankly I can't wait to hear her next story. .


Soul Baring Storytelling


For me. If you don't know Amanda Marshall listen to the sound clip samples here at Amazon, or look her up on YouTube, there are several videos available, you'll know if you like her right away. . . I love her music, I have been waiting for years for a follow up album to this CD. In Everybody's got a Story" Amanda marshall tells several from romantic ("Red Magic Marker", "Love is My Witness" Marry Me"),friendship and betrayal ("Colleen", "Brand new Beau") to dealing with bigotry ("Double Agent"), to a hilaious look at the consequence of partying a bit to hard in the 21st Century ("Sunday Morning After")to other challenges in life (" Witness", "Dizzy" and "Inside the tornado") .

One of my favorite hook"s from AM is her use of the parentheical thought. Here's an example from Sunday Morning After".

"I remember yellin' Hey DJ, Jack of all you might like this song.
(That's when it all gets hazy)
Now my clothes are sellin' on E-Bay and I don't know what I'm gonna put on. (Where were my friends to save me?)

So here's the deal,
Amanda Marshall is clever talented and beautiful, and it all shines through on this CD. what more could you want from a musician and an album?.


She totally lost it. Wanna be Britney
I was even surprised to see that her producer was Billy Mann whom I liked his own albums, but was expecting something better with this combination of talent. Loved her last 2 albums and reluctantly bought it out of pity to be honest. Sadly, these guys tried too hard to sound like a some dumb teeny clone. I hope she can redeem herself in future.


Hit & miss collection
There are some goodies on here that made it onto my MP3 but the rest, well, they're space takers until I get to the songs I like if I'm playing the actual CD. I own her earlier (and better) CDs. I hesitate to name the songs I like/dislike because of the previous reviews of "this song rocks!" and then for the same song later "total bomb!. " Her earlier CDs however, are well worth owning. .


Still a very good CD
I think it is unjustified, who wants to listen to the same sounding songs disc after disc. This disc has gotten quite a bit of flack for moving away from Amanda's sound on her first two CD's and moving towards a sound that is easier to sell to the mainstream.

Here he voice is in fine form. "Sunday Morning After," is a catchy pop tune that will have you still singing it hours afterword. "Colleen" and "Marry Me" also stand out. For me though the highlight is without a doubt "Sunday Morning After. " I can't ever remember a song about a drunken one-nighter coming in such a catchy, fun and funny package.
