This CD has depth and great credibility from a woman's point of view. Each song has a special meaning and a certain tenderness. Shawn King sings incredibly and doesn't just sing words --- she sings the meaning of the song. I loved her on Dr. Phil and on Jimmy Kimmel Live. As a woman, I can really identify with this CD.

I can't tell you how much I love this album! Shawn King's voice is so rich and sultry and her pitch is spot on! Take it from someone who is "in the biz", I know good music and this my friends, is it! I first heard Willie Nelson talking about her on Bill Mack's Highway 16 XM radio show. So naturally, I had to take a lookie and a listen. I like a what I lookie and I love a what I listened! Do yourself a favor and add this cd to your shopping cart! You won't be disappointed!-'-'

I was surprised by how much I liked this album. Shawn King has a pure voice. If you are a fan of country or AC music, I would highly recommend this CD. My personal favorites are "Find Me," "Place Your Love Calls Home," and "Closet of Ruby Red Slippers." But you could just put the CD in the stereo, push play and enjoy the whole album from beginning to end.

The album has a decidedly relaxed pace to it, so don't put it in if you are trying to get pumped up to lift weights. Listen to it when you are done and are stretching or something.

One thing that I like is that it doesn't seem like Shawn is pretending to be anything that She is not. She is a city girl who likes country music. She doesn't add any twang, yet the music feels country.

Get the CD. You'll enjoy it.
