I had a list of songs that I wanted to play at my wedding (from hearing them on the radio) and I noticed a pattern forming -- all of them are by Paul Overstreet. So of course I got the album. Only after reading others' reviews did I notice that all the other songs we have been considering (Forever and ever, deeper than the holler, When you say nothing at all) were also written by Paul. I had no idea. I truly admire Paul's music, and I wonder why we are not hearing more from him. This is what country music really is, and he deserves a lot more credit and recognition than he gets.

Paul Overstreet shows in his music the everyday simple but mostly forgotten issues of the simple life of yesterdays' gone bye, listening to theses songs remind me of a Rockwell painting something to tressure and feel good about. Song Like "Seein' My Father In Me" "Heroes" "Daddy's Come Around" "Sowin Love" "Love Helps Those" "All The Fun" and many others not counting all the hits he's had for other artists like Randy Travis' "On The Other Hand" "Forever and Ever Amen" "Deeper Than The Holler" Keith Whitneys' "When You Say Nothing At All" with the first and last being songs of the year, and many more great songs that have touched all of us who love the simple life of what country music is all about and no one touches on it like Paul Overstreet does and the best of his own our here to enjoy but do try and find other fine Albums by this great artist, you'll be glad you did. Thanks Paul for these great songs. (Do you remember Merle's Drive-In Paul....In Visalia, CA.?)

I surely do agree with the person who said that Paul Overstreet does not get enough acclaim for his work. He needs more exposure so that more people will know of his wonderful talent and recoginize his name, knowing that when they hear the name Paul Overstreet on an album that they will NOT be disappionted in what they get. They will know that they will get true country with the warmest regards, but more than this they will be spiritually uplifted, and brought closer to God. Would like some vidios/DVD's also. Go Paul, you have a God given talent, use it, do it for Jesus! but always remain humble and give all the glory to God, who gave you your wonderful talent. Don't ever let fame lead you in the wrong direction. Let's hear more of Paul Overstreet!!! Yeah! God Bless your Ministry, HannahJane in CA

This song touches my heart, and probably the heart of all parents who enjoyed being with their children as they were growing up. Because we usually do see our parents in us. As we look into the mirror, the things we say, the things we try to instill in our children. The greatest compliment to a parent is for a child to say, I want to do with my children like you used to do with us.

This album is full of the greatest and most heavenly music ever heard. If you are searching for the roots you left behind, get this album! If you have lost your faith either in God or your marriage, rekindle it again. Let the man who has allowed God to speak through his voice help you find your way back to true happiness!

The First Song I Heard By Paul Overstreet Was All The Fun. I Bought This Album Because It Contains 3 Of My Favorite Songs. They Are: Seein' My Father In Me, Daddy's Come Around, And Ball And Chain. He Also Wrote The Randy Travis Hit Forever And Ever, Amen.

I have been a fan of Paul Overstreet for years, and I'm glad at least some of his music is still available.....sure wish the label who carried the original "Schuyler, Knobloch, and Overstreet" lp with Pauls great "You Can't Stop Love" would do a re-issue. Come to think of it, ALL of Paul's records should be available.

A definate best buy. I listen to it over and over. I will definately buy more. Will Amazon.com carry more?

Paul Overstreet is best known for his prolific song writing of C&W music but this CD also demonstrates his terrific ability as a singer as well.

Paul has a way of really incorporating the very important things of life into his songs in such a way that you want to make them the most important areas of your life too.
