I will be honest, I thought this girl was going to be a one hit wonder, but she has got me hooked! This album was incredible, and this woman has a great future ahead of her in the country music industry.
Spend the extra dollar and get the deluxe version of the CD, you will not be disappointed! I am a converted fan, and I will be looking forward to her next album!
Enjoy!
Kellie is a WINNER!!!!October 4, 2008 J. Church 3 out of 9 found this review helpful
I didnt care that much for Kellie on AI and didnt bother with her debut cd but after watching her sing I wonder on the CMA's I feel in love with her. She does have a heart of gold and I would recommend this cd to every country/pop fan out there because its the new kind of country with a voice that is amazing truly a HUGE SURPRISE! GOOD LUCK KELLIE I THINK WE'LL BE SEEING YOU ON STAGE FOR THE COUNTRY MUSIC AWARDS FOR FEMALE SOLO ARTIST OF 2009!
This time, it's all "Kellie Pickler"September 30, 2008 Mike from Charlotte(Charlotte, NC United States) 8 out of 12 found this review helpful
Kellie Pickler calls her second album simply "Kellie Pickler." That's appropriate because the songs reflect more of her unique outlook and larger-than-life personality.
At the same time, the album fuses two years of musical maturity -- hundreds of concerts and sessions with Nashville's best song writers -- with the work of a hand-picked producer who brings out Kellie's best.
All this adds up to a rich, well-rounded album that gives us more insight into Kellie Pickler than ever before.
I love all the tracks, but my personal favorites are:
"Best Days of Your Life" -- Kellie lets an ex-boyfriend know he peaked when he dated her. Co-written with Taylor Swift, who sings background vocals, this tune shows breakout potential.
"One Last Time" -- One of three great ballads on the album. A relationship is too draining to continue, but a last spark of desire remains.
"Lucky Girl" -- Smokin' hot and perfectly arranged. From now on, when you hear "sexy country siren," this is the song you'll hear in your head.
"Going Out In Style" -- An over-the-top, tongue-in-cheek intro kicks off this lively, humorous tribute to excessive consumption.
"Don't Close Your Eyes" -- Kellie enriches the offerings on the Deluxe version with a beautiful pure country classic. Kellie's cover of the Keith Whitley classic reminds us that she can sing traditional country as well as anyone today. True to the original, it also shows country fans how much we miss Whitley.
