On his self-titled 1996 debut album, Mark Wills showed himself to be a talented utility player on the modern country field, as familiar with edgy Southern country-rock as mainstream radio fare. However, none of the raggedy... more » stuff passed muster like the smoother, sentimental sounds of Wish You Were Here, his second outing, and with three No. 1 hits--"I Do (Cherish You)," "Wish You Were Here," "Don't Laugh at Me"--the die was cast. Wills's third release finds the Georgian pigeonholed as the ultimate heart-on-his-sleeve romantic, changed by love and fatherhood, and fretting about the world's forgotten children. All that is well and good, and Wills, with his earnest, aching tenor, knows how to sell a song, mostly to neglected, housebound wives. What's missing is the other three-quarters of his personality--and a rhythm number guaranteed to wear the leather off your shoes. --Alanna Nash« less

"i actually discovered this cd only a few days ago, in paris of all places. although not a massive country fan as a rule (my parents saturated me in it as a child and since then i have rebelled :)) listening to this cd at a listening post i was truly gobsmacked by the delivery of the album and the depth and emotion of the lyrics. let's just say that as a consequence of this mighty cd (and from a singer i had never even heard of b4) i have started to investigate not only this great artist's music more closely but also have bought a few other country cds since. hopefully this cd will be a great and well-deserved success, and once i retun home to ireland i shall be doing my most to make sure my friends know who he is:)))))"
Every song is AWESOME on this album.....

"This CD is FANTASTIC! Every song is great. This is the kind of CD that you can listen to every song, not just the ones you hear on the radio, over and over again. This would be a great CD to take on a long road trip."
Mark Wills does it again!

"Never mind that two of the songs on the CD aren't his--he does them well. In fact, BACK AT ONE is the reason I bought the CD. But I discovered some other great songs hidden in there--EVERYTHING THERE IS TO KNOW ABOUT YOU, RIGHT HERE, THE PERFECT CONVERSATION, and the perfect fatherhood song, IN MY ARMS. I really can't believe that anyone would put a bad review on this page--can't they see that Mr. Wills is one of the most talented singers in this generation? He's all country, with maybe a slight pop side. But who cares? This is a great album, and if you buy it, it'll be in your collection PERMANENTLY."
Find some original songs!

"I am a huge music fan, and I am also a musician myself. Mark Wills has amazing talent and excellent skills...however, every song that he chooses to release is not his song. It seems like every Mark Wills song on the radio has been done by some huge Pop star. It is rather annoying. I'm not against covering songs, but I do feel that Mark's true talent might come out with an original song by him. Enough of Brandy...and Brian McKnight...they have made the songs popular. I will say that he is an excellent musician, but just seems to release the poor songs."
