This is a great CD. Amy has a lovely voice, and the songs are clever and witty. It is hard to classify the genre - it ranges from folk to rock, with a little bit of twang thrown in for good measure. I love the opening track, Step out of the Shade, but it's the tongue-in-cheek Double Wide Trailer that gets stuck in my head all the time. Real Thing is the best girls' song since the days of Helen Reddy and Gloria Gaynor. I would definitely recommend this CD.

Amy's voice is better than ever; she has a command of ranges that can be awesome. Her lyrics reach the heart and make the listener hear the story. She is witty and sassy in The Real Thing, sentimental with feeling in Two, and Double Wide is just a great song to have fun with the crowd. She's a winner.

I saw Amy Speace twice in Harrisburg PA and she's a very good songwriter and performer. She has a beautiful voice. I'm basically a classic rock fan, but lately I've started enjoying some new country music and I really like this artist. Go hear her if you have a chance.

This CD's songs resonate long after listening to them. It is especially great for long road trips. Amy writes words and music that reflect and touch the Amercan spirit. She inspires us to take risks with Step Out of the Shade and motivates women to be the real thing in a song by that name. Some may call her style americana, folk, or singer-songwriter, but I just know she is the best of all worlds and is one to watch (and listen to) as she rises in the future music scene.
