Not her best
The songs don't engage me as much as the ones on her other albums. I am a huge Trisha Yearwood fan but this album is not her best. In fact, this is my least favorite and I love most of her other albums. Having said that, anything Trisha records is worth listening to!.


Trishful Thinking
Kinda low keyed throughout. A good album from Trisha. The good songs on her are:

Where Are You Now
One Love - nice, down low tune
Too Bad You're So Good - nice, toetapping beat to it.
Real Live Woman.


a big let down
A couple of the songs had basically the same tune as some of her newer ones, such as Jasper County Line. This cd really didn't have any notable songs on it. She didn't really use her vocals like she is capable of doing. Was disappointed all the way around with this cd.


Trisha as good as ever
It won't please purists who only like traditional country but it is a brilliant example of contemporary country music. Like so much of the music recorded in Nashville, this album mixes pop and rock with country. Several great singer-songwriters contributed songs for this album, some being original while others are covers. Many of the songs are ballads but there is plenty of variety here.

The set opens with Where are you now, written by Mary Chapin Carpenter and Kim Richey who lend their considerable vocal talents to the track by providing harmony vocals. Next is One love, written by three co-writers including Kimmie Rhodes, a singer-songwriter who is highly rated by those familiar with her music but who has never achieved the level of success that she deserves. The third song here, Sad eyes, is by Bruce Springsteen, whose songs have been covered by several country singers. Trisha's chosen song from his catalog suits her ideally with Jackson Browne on harmony vocals. . The oldest song here is Try me again, a cover of a seventies song by Linda Ronstadt and Andrew Gold. Almost as old is Wild for you baby, but this is a song that I hadn't heard before I bought this album.

The title track is by Bobby Cryner who recorded two albums on major labels in the nineties but failed to get airplay on American country radio stations. If she can't record her own songs, at least it's great to hear this song recorded by Trisha. Matraca Berg recorded three albums of her own but has had far greater success as a songwriter. Here, Matraca co-wrote three songs - Come back when it ain't raining (her co-writer on this one was Harlan Howard), I'm still alive and When a a love song sings the blues.

This album, recorded nearly ten years after Trisha made her debut with She's in love with the boy, finds Trisha still in top form and able to adapt to changing musical trents. All Trisha's fans should enjoy this album.


better and better every time...
this album is such a thrill to listen to. it seems that with every album yearwood records she gets better and better, and not only her voice, she takes her music to new and exiting places. as she opens with the song "WHERE ARE YOU NOW", and brings us her version of Springsteens "SAD EYES", and other WONDERFUL SONGS like matraca berg and Harlan Howards "Come Back When It Ain't Rainin'"
and Matraca Berg and Ronnie Samosets "When A Love Song Sings The Blues". Every song is as great as the last, just when you think it can't posobly get any better, it does. . . this cd is worth a listen. .
