I watched this season of Nashville Star, and was immediately impressed with Brad Cotter's professionalism and confidence. He competed against some great personalities and voices, but his songwriting abilities set him apart from the rest of the competition. Truly a people's choice singer, he was not even one of the original finalists chosen by the judges - the people voted him in, and ultimately voted him the winner.

"I Meant To" is a fantastic song with a rolling, rhythmic beat that sticks with you hours after you've heard it. "I Miss Me" is a gentle ballad with a unique perspective. Both songs are outstanding. Brad Cotter certainly has potential to become one of country music's superstars.

Listen to these two songs and you will know that Brad Cotter is not just another pretty face with those bedroom eyes (don't look at them girls or you'll never care if he ever sings a note!} It is plainly evident from the elegantly crafted lyrics of his songs that here is a man who knows livin' and lovin' from all sides. As someone with no connection with the music industry other than I just love good music of all types, Brad Cotter is all that country has drifted away from--reflective "loving life no matter what it throws you" kind of music. I don't doubt that either of these songs will go #1 and easily could cross charts. When I watched him on Nashville Star he reminded me of others I have picked to go on and be great, such as Reba, and George Strait, and Trisha Yearwood and Garth Brooks. Buy this album people people, his voice his wonderfully melodic, his songs unfurl the emotions, and his melodies uniquely simple and fresh. Just don't get too close--I can tell this one is a heartbreaker!! PS to all those in the recording industry in Nashville, I reiterate what the judges said last season "Shame on you" for letting people like those represented on the Nashville Stars hang out in your hallways for ten years. I cant tell half of the girls apart other than they are all screamers and there is alot more to sex appeal than a man's body-especially when it is supposed to be about the music (no offense Brad).

I have bought a lot of cds in the past, based on having one favorite song on it. Bring it home and listen to the rest and still only like the one song.
I bought Brad Cotters new cd. ALL and I mean ALL the songs are Great. this young man is the total package. Gifted songwriter,
an honest voice and more talent than you can shake a stick at. I was very impressed. Brad has a wide range to his voice and the song choices keep the album moving.
I give Patient Man 5 stars and suggest you run out and buy this wonderful cd.

This is some really good original music from a really good singer/songwriter. If you like contemporary C&W, give this CD a try. The song "I Meant To" has clever lyrics, a tune that will stick in your head, and Brad's voice is right on all the time! The song "I Miss Me" is just as good. Give this CD a try, and I promise you'll want to pre-order "A Patient Man."

I think this man is brilliant, both in his song writing and of course his raw talent of just singing. On top of that he is a whiz on the keyboards!!! Not too bad to look at either!! This whole album is awesome! My only question is...where is he now? I wish radio and CMT/VH1 Country would have played him more, they didn't seem to give him enough air space, too bad, it is our Loss-Let's hope and Pray he keeps pushing the pavement cuz he is so talented...I want to hear more! If you want to hear one of the best new singer/songwriters of this decade...RUN to buy this CD, you can't be dissappointed-I promise!

I love both of these songs. I actually think I like I Miss Me more than I Meant To. I hope he has a long career. He really has a terrific voice and it is perfect for country music. I saw him on the Grand Ole Opry and he is just adorable and very appreciative. I cannot wait for his album to come out.

Brad Cotter is an underrated, under promoted superstar!! HIS VOICE CAN GIVE YOU CHILLS IT IS SO AWESOME!!These two songs are 2 of his best!! LOVE IT!!
