5.0 out of 5 stars Great Single!!, October 5, 2002

Usually I don't buy singles, but this one by Faith Hill is a must -have. It has her new hit single "Cry" on it which is incredible. But there are also two songs that you cannot find on her new album, "Wicked" and "Shadows"-two amazing songs!! Wicked has a medium beat and is very haunting and pretty. Shadows is very slow and beautiful. I highly recommend this single to anyone who likes Faith, likes "Cry" or just simply enjoys well-crafted music.

5.0 out of 5 stars If this song isn't "alt-", what is?, October 6, 2005

I haven't heard much of the full album "Cry", and I'm far from the biggest fan of Faith Hill more generally. "This Kiss" and "Breathe" were each annoying in their respective ways. "The Way You Love Me" is a clever song with some cool couterpoint at the end. The more recent Faith seems very pretentious without interesting songs to back it up.

Taken on its own, however, "Cry" is one of the most excellent songs in recent memory, and I don't just mean in country music. The way that the voice stays just out of sync with the strong drums builds up just the right feeling of tamped-down rage. The bare lines at the end of the bridge ("I don't want pity; I just want what is mine.") lead to an explosion in the last chorus. As someone who listens to a lot of stuff classified as folk, indie-pop, or alt-country, I just don't expect this much ambition in songwriting from the major Country scene today. "Cry" is a nice exception that everyone should check out.

5.0 out of 5 stars Simply Incredible, December 20, 2002

I purchased this single for the non-album tracks and was not disappointed! "Cry" is a great album, and it's a shame the bonus songs here didn't make the final cut. Okay, this single is the same price as the album in many stores, but it's worth the price for "Shadows" alone. This is Faith at her best in a heartfelt ballad, very similar to "Stronger." "Wicked" is a mid-tempo song in the vein of "Unsaveable" and "If You're Gonna Fly Away."

These songs are a great addition to "Cry." I've recorded it all onto my hard drive and put "Wicked" after "Unsaveable" and "Shadows" after "Stronger." It only makes the album better!
