Synopsis

Amazon.com
Consider the following parallel: In the mid-1970s, Olivia Newton-John defined easy-listening country-pop with breathy come-hitherness and cloying sentimentality. What goes around comes around, as Bryan White proves with his fourth squeaky-clean charmer. With the exception of some ambient pedal steel and fiddle, White's power ballad style is about as country as Luther Vandross. In fact, his adolescent coos and oohs sound like samples from the froth favored by today's R&B crowd. With all of Nashville at his disposal, White lays the production on thick, employing the Nashville String Machine to gloss songs that have all the punch of sugar cubes dissolving in Evian. When he picks up the pen himself, he drips slush like, "You got the power, you got the mind / You got the skills, Baby, I ain't lyin'." If this is country music's final inoculation for the soft-rock world of middle-school sock-hops, supermarket aisles, and orthodontist offices, well, at least it's over with. --Roy Kasten

CD Reviews

It is the greatest by far!

"I love it, now it is my favorite of Bryan's. I put the CD on repeat and listen to it all day long several times a week. I still cannot decide which is my favorite song, there is so many good ones.The amazon reviewer must not be a fan of the less traditional country music, but he doesn't have to bash it so badly. How do they chose reviewers anyway? They should have a broad spectum of music they like, and even though they may not like that genre, they don't have to run it into the ground. Bryan's music is great, and he puts a lot into it. He sings so well, and picks such wonderful songs."
Great Album!

"`I love this album as I love all of Bryan Whites Music. Thanks again Bryan for another terrific Album. I also want to say to whoever the jerk is who keeps signing all of his reviews A Music Lover and then goes on to mention some Robbie Fulks in every review: GET A LIFE! you write the same thing under every review and send them 2 or 3 times under various names. I saw you listed under LeAnn Rimes reviews too."
He's still awesome!

"This CD is a heartfelt ballad to his fiancee. There are alot of good slow songs, and a few fast ones. However, they all give alot of meaning to the word love. Thanks Brian, for making your best CD yet!"
