4.0 out of 5 stars Great for dancing with the one you love., August 20, 1999

"Mr. Man in the Moon" has to be the all-time best song to dance to. Stirring and romantic at the same time. It's one of those rare songs that are great for two-stepping or three-stepping.

I just love this CD. One of Patty's best she has ever done. Her vocal ability is just outstanding. What a range of vocal ability. You Will is a wonderful single from the Cd as well as How Can I Help You Say Goodbye. This song is about losing loved ones and best friends. The first time I heard it I was just astonished at the words in the song. It makes you feel like you are there and these things are happening to you. Another good song on the CD that was Number One is Blame It On Your Heart. I Love This Song and the first time I heard it I knew it was going to be number one. It is about a man who has left his wife for another woman and now tries to mend things up with her and she more or less tells him to get lost. Evidentally he doesn't know how lucky he has it. There is a lot of good music on this CD and one of my favorite songs is Mr. Man In The Moon. I like it because I like the older country music and it sounds like a song from the Late 50's to early 60's.
What a good selection of music all on one CD. I recommend this CD to anyone who loves country music and that is why I gave it 5 stars.

Patty Loveless left MCA Records after five albums, feeling that she was getting lost in the shuffle known as Reba McEntire, Wynonna, and Trisha Yearwood. 1993's Only What I Feel - her sixth album and Epic label debut - was her most traditional sounding to date. This is appropriate, as Loveless is the most traditional of all recent female country vocalists, sort of a modern day Loretta Lynn. Unlike Lynn, Loveless doesn't write most of her own songs. But she relates to her material well enough that she more than makes it her own.

Feisty upbeat numbers had given Loveless her biggest hits at MCA ("Timber I'm Falling In Love," "I'm That Kind Of Girl," etc.) and the leadoff single "Blame It On Your Heart" is just as catchy, with "All I Need (Is Not To Need You)" and "You Will" also getting the adrenaline flowing. The slower numbers, however, are ultimately the most memorable. The reflective "What's A Broken Heart" packs a wallop of emotion, while the achingly hushed "How Can I Help You To Say Goodbye" can be related to by anyone who has ever lost someone dear to them. The latter elevated Loveless to the top of the female country pack where she remained for a few more Epic albums.

There are a couple of bland numbers found here ("Love Builds Bridges," "Mr. Man In the Moon") but most of the album is extremely well done. On a side note, a ruptured blood vessel on her vocal chords occurred during the initial recording of this album, which led to its re-recording following successful laser surgery.
