Free Music Notes for Songbook: A Collection of HitsFree Music Review: Which version to buy..... Hit: 4 StarsThis album contains many good songs, but I recommend you to buy the import version of this album instead. The import version contains a number of extra tracks, for example the beautiful song "On A Bus to St Cloud", written by Gretchen Peters and "Believe Me Baby I Lied". If you find an import album that isn't much more expensive than this one, buy it instead.
Free Music Review: Great CD! Hit: 5 StarsThis compilation of Trisha Yearwood's hits is an excellent CD. All the songs are nice (most notably "How Do I Live" & "Thinkin' About You"). You'll never be tired of playing it over & over again.
Free Music Review: My Favorite Trisha Yearwood CD Hit: 5 StarsIt contains her best loved songs! A great mix from her other CDs! These are the songs that she sings in her concert I attended last summer! It was wonderful to hear all the ones I liked best!
Free Music Review: Think You Hate Country? Try 'Songbook' On For Size Hit: 5 StarsWith all due respect to the country crossover acts lately, it's a crime that Trisha Yearwood is not hoisted to the same multi-platinum, heavy-rotation status as, say, Shania, Faith, LeAnne and The Dixie Chicks. This woman is The Real Thing. To say her voice is powerful doesn't do her justice. Other singers have powerful voices, but use these gifts to butcher songs. Ms. Yearwood executes each song perfectly. With each song comes the emotional depth of an entire novel, the maturity of every woman, the narrative turned into a personal experience. There is not one clunker in this bunch. A dozen songs that flow together harmoniuosly; some fun, some sad, all gripping in their own way. You do not have to like country music to love this album. I wish it sold twenty million records. I guarantee your standard for what qualifies as good music will be raised. Just buy it.
Free Music Review: Mixed feelings Hit: 3 StarsThis is the second Trisha Yearwood CD that I purchased, and I only bought it for "The Song Remembers When" which is one of the most beautiful songs I have ever heard. I own Ms. Yearwood's "Everybody Knows" which is a CD I listen to over and over again, from start to finish, and never tire of. I can't say the same about "Songbook," as I don't feel the songs connect to each other very well, and they range from almost pop-candy lyrics (like "Xs and Os") to inconclusive moral dilemmas ("In Another's Eyes.") And, in addition to the inconsistent lyrics, I don't feel that this record showcases Ms. Yearwood's tremendous range of vocal talents--certainly not when she's singing with Garth Brooks. If you know and like at least two of the songs on this record, then it's probably worth the money, but Ms. Yearwood is generally producing better and better records as time goes by, and I think you'd get more out of one of her complete album projects than this collection of songs which don't really have anything else in common.
