Family is her best work to date

I can't believe it has been almost 12 years since Ms. Rimes come onto the music scene with BLUE. Now, at 25, she has a lot of powerful emotions experiences to showcase on this--her tenth album. On the title track, she wrote and sang about the true-story of what happened to her family during her time of raising stardom. NBTD answers us the "what-if" question of what would happen if she stayed in Mississippi. In other words, what if she never got out of that state. Other great tracks are; Fight, Good Friend And A Glass Of Wine (good one to sing with your friends) I Want You With You (an amazingly beautiful love song about her husband); Doesn't Everybody and the emotional, yet sentimential ballad "What I Can Not Change."

The bonus tracks are good too, but my favorite one is "When You Love Someone Like That." Reba McEntire and LeAnn's voice blend so perfectly together it's scarey.

All in all, this album brings out the best in LeAnn as a gifted singer and songwriter. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS ALBUM TO ANY LEANN FAN OR ANYONE WHO JUST LOVES GREAT MUSIC!! Basically, if this album doesn't go platinum by the end of 2008--it will surely be considered a crime in my eyes. I think that says it all about her new "best" album to date.

ALBUM OF THE YEAR!!

"Family" is LeAnn's best album. There isn't one bad song on the album. There is a song for everyone on this one. "Family," "Nothin' Better To Do," "Fight," "Upper Hand," and "What I Cannot Change" are my favorites. Her voice sounds better than ever. It doesnt get much better than this!!

Far from her best. . .

Being a huge fan of Leanne I was sorely disappointed in this CD. While her voice was strong and sounded amazing, the songs left a lot to be desired. To be frank, this CD is extremely boring.

Other than the three duets and the song "Nothing Better To Do," this CD is dull. I hate to give a review like this for her since I am such a big fan.

I borrowed this CD from a friend and I am extremely glad that I didn't buy it. I will just go to itunes and buy the four songs that I like.

I suggest you listen to samples to make your own decision. But if your are going to listen to me. Don't waste your money.

Great material wasted on bad recording

What is WRONG with these people? LeAnn Rimes did a great job with the songs on this album, which are all good or excellent. But the CD is recorded SO LOUD that it is distorted and sounds like connecting a 200-watt amplifier to a 4-inch speaker! In the last few years, I've encountered several new CD's recorded with quality comparable to a wind-up Victrola, and this is one of them! Stereo separation? Forget it. Understand the lyrics? Forget that, too. Distinguish a guitar from a saxophone? Difficult, at best. The music comes out as an amalgam of sounds with ZERO definition. What a waste of LeAnn's talent!
