5.0 out of 5 stars Who knew this former Wings star could be such a talent?, January 17, 1999

By A Customer

I never knew what a voice Crystal Bernard had. I enjoyed this CD tremendously. She has a long career ahead of her. Country and wonderful. What a great storyteller. This is why I love country music.

4.0 out of 5 stars A review on the album (The girl next door), February 13, 2000

By	John latshaw (Placerville California) - See all my reviews

In regards to Crystal Bernards first album, this album clearly shows that Miss Bernard has a lot of potential that has yet to be tapped. I believe that except for one or two songs that this album was truly top notch. I look forward to purchasing her next album.

4.0 out of 5 stars A good country album, March 9, 2004

By	wintersongs (The Golden State, USA) - See all my reviews

I bought this album about 8 years ago on a whim, not even hearing one song before I bought it. Fortunately, I didn't regret it, although only half the album is memorable while the other half is forgettable.

It is 8 years later, and I can still remember how these songs sound like (they all happen to be in the first half):

-"Could Have Been Mine"
-"You're Gonna Miss a Whole Lotta Love"
-"Eleven Roses"
-"Have We Forgotten What Love Is"
-"This Purple Heart"
-"State of Mind"
-"Too Far This Time"

The best songs are "Eleven Roses," Have We Forgetten What Love Is," and "This Purple Heart." I especially like the lyrics to "Eleven Roses" and "Purple Heart."

As for the second half, I don't remember how any of them sound like. In other words, they are forgettable:

-"Miracle"
-"When You Took Your Love Away"
-"Till I Get over You"
-"Call It Love"
-"If You Have Love"

Let's not even talk about the "Intro," which is utterly pointless and a waste of a track.

Crystal has a sweet Sherrie Austin voice with an occasionally overdone vibrato and the album has a country sound, which works for her. This is a good album, not a great one, but good.
