Amazing CD by a very talented group. Their vocals are beautiful and the lyrics are very touching. Especially the song "One Day You Will". Very powerful song. I expect great things from this group. They remind me a bit of Little Big Town with more of a rock edge to it. Hilary and Charles each have voices that could stand on their own but together they create a rare and phenomenal sound.

Buy it! You will not be disappointed.

The diversity of this group is what makes for simply great music. The vocals are beautiful, the lyrics modern and emotional. Best album I have heard in a long time. We purchased the day the album came out and have been playing at our business; customers continually asking about the artists. You will not be disappointed in any of the songs, very strong from start to finish!

I first heard of Lady Antebellum thru Victoria Shaw who is a co-writer and co-producer of the album. I've been a fan of Victoria's for years, she has written hit songs for Tanya Tucker to Garth Brooks as well as her own solo career in the late 90's. So I figured I'd check out Lady Antebellum. I was not disappointed. The album is one of those great summer albums, one of those albums that you want to crank up with the windows down. They sort of remind me of Little Big Town in some ways. For me country music has gotten very generic sounding, Lady Antebellum breaks out of that sound. Great harmonies, great hooks, great songs. The only thing I'm not crazy about is the name of the group, sounds like a girl group rather than a trio of two guys and one girl. That aside, this is a great album and if you like Little Big Town, I think you'll like Lady Antebellum as well.

The first time I heard of Lady A was when they were announced as an opening act for a concert I was attending. I've NEVER been so blown away by an unknown band before, and they do NOT disappoint on their debut album! The songs have a lyrical style reminiscent of legends like Carole King and James Taylor, and the harmonies of the three singers are flawless. I especially appreciate that H. Scott and C. Kelley share lead vocal responsibilities throughout the album. A MUST HAVE for any country/folk music fan...and I even encourage Top 40 fans to give them a listen!

I was very excited for this album to finally come out after listening to their debut song many times over. Lady Antebellum doesn't disappoint. The ballads are sweetly sung with the harmony of Charles and Hillary's voices and the upbeat songs are catchy. What a truly awesome new album. Can't wait for this trio to go on tour. All We'd Ever Need and Things People Say are soft and poignant ballads and Love's Looking Good on You is a great upbeat song.

Lady Antebellum's debut CD has a fantastic mix of music, all written by the members of the Lady Antebellum team. Charles Kelley and Hillary Scott mix their harmonies nice and tight, and their voices complement each other. Throw Dave Haywood's harmonies into the mix and they rival the harmonies of Little Big Town.

Having seen this band live, some songs disappoint as studio cuts, and lack the energy of their live performance. No doubt, as they gain experience in the studio this energy will translate.

A bargain buy at Amazon. Get on board with this band. They're going places!

I love music of nearly every genre, but country has always been my favorite. It's been awhile since I've bought a country CD that I can listen to without having to press the next button once. I first heard of Lady Antebellum on CMT's countdown when they debuted their "Love Don't Live Here" video, and although I liked the song I figured they were another one of those new one-hit artists that you don't hear from again after a few months. My sister saw them perform live at a Jason Aldean concert and bought their album, brought it home, and raved about it. I listened to it and went and bought myself a copy the next day.

I know it seems like an uneven review, but the best thing I can tell you is to go to the Amazon page for this CD and listen to the song sampler...then you'll get it. :)

Any modern country music fan will definitely want this in their collection.

They are great - every song on the CD was written by the band all that musical talent in one band who could ask for more!

This is a great new country album. The group manages to inject their own style while still giving country music listeners what they want to hear.

Pros: Energetic, Upbeat, Fun Songs like LOve Don't Live Here, Lookin' For a Good Time, Slow Down Sister, and Love's Lookin' Good on You
Beautiful Ballads like the inspiring I Run To You and One Day You Will and the heartfelt love songs All We'd Ever Need and Can't Take My Eyes Off You
The personal Home is Where The Heart Is is also great.

Cons:There is really nothing to complain about here. it's just a great country album.

Please remember that you can comment on my reviews if you''d like for me to revieww something. Of course, i don't own everything. I will help if I can, though.

I don't like country (except for the Man In Black, Johnny Cash), but I really like this CD. I love the guy lead and girl lead vocals and they sound great together. Good music and no annoying twangy Southern accents and most of the songs aren't stuffed with the standard Country cliches. This was like hearing Nickel Creek for the first time b/c it steps outside the genre. Can't wait for the next one!
