Lots of forced Romeo and Juliet references. The second verse strts with "You were Romeo; I was a Scarlet Letter." I'm guessing she's never read either as those lyrics don't make sense, and she finishes with Romeo and Juliet marrying each other at the end of the song. I've always found her songwriting has always made up for her weak vocals, but not in this new song. I'm sure it'll still be a hit among middle school and high school girs.

I just feel he didn't really gain much traction or something. I suppose it was okay; I wasn't big on it though. he certainly didn't ruin it or anything...

I can't really explain it. His voice quality seemed dry…not the performance so much, but the voice. I can’t really explain it.

I think it helped me that I saw her perform much of the album acoustically only with a fidlde accompaniment a week or so before i popped in the disc. It gave the songs real life when i listened to them later... Jana: I really dig tha lbum too (obviously).

I used to like John Rich too. Proof that politics and reality TV can make anyone a twit... doing both... yikes. Elizabeth Cook is fantastic. Good set. Sarah Buxton is proof that looking cute isn't the only way to get radio airplay. She should be on the radio just as much if not more than Julianne Hough. Shame she's not, she can actually sing too.

It kills me that true talents like that can't get on airhead country radio while piffle twit artists like Jessica Simpson and Julianne Hough get greeted with open arms due to their pop culture noteriety. Taylor Swift's reception in the UK proves that some folks over there have just as poor of musical taste as young American females...... Last year Vern Gosdin recorded a duet with Louisiana born artist Kimber Sparks down in Australia where she is attending college even though she is in her late 30's. Kimber asked Vern to sing "Chisled In Stone" with her and he provides a supporting role with his noticeably weakened voice these days. Nonetheless the song comes off just fine and Bill Chamber's production works really well. Its worth a listen....
