I wouldnt say I am that big a fan of Country music, but for some reason, i love this album. If you like soft stylecountry music, then this would be a perfect album. Remember Ronan Keating's cover version of "If Tomorrow Never Comes", yep, one of Garths pieces, lovely smooth lyrics and music to match, well "The Storm" and "Mr Midnight" are in a similar vain, whilst "Beer Run" (duet with George Jones,) reminds me of "The Dukes Of Hazzard" moonshine bootlegging days! There's 12 tracks on this CD, with just a couple that let it down, "Rodeo Or Mexico" being one of them. I cant really compare this to other Country albums, but it does compare pretty well with his older work, ie: Ropin' The Wind, which was another I particularly liked. "When You Come Back to Me," which was recorded for the film Frequency, hits home with its theme of reconnecting with a loved one, while "Pushing Up Daisies" takes a sorrowful look at his father's disconnection with life since the death of his wife (Garth's mother) Some beautiful songs with even better lyrics.
