GUILTY ME has a very soulful touch to the song as you listen close to the lyrics. This song could put you in a trance that you can't get out of. The flow and tempo are excellent from start to finish. WOW! I love it. BREAK IT DOWN is a sweet mellow song that has an amazing melody as it flows along great. The lyrics are the best as you can hear each word as clear as the day. What a true gem this is.
IT NEVER FEELS LIKE SHE CARES THAT MUCH has great lyrics that you might be able to relate to. The storyline is one that some of us can relate to while others have never been there. The melody and lyrics are top notch, to say the least. Give it a listen and find out if you can relate to this song.
COOL IT OUT brings this epic album to an end with a Tom Petty type of groove as the guitars are loud and proud. The lyrics are superb as you can sing along to it. Turn it up and enjoy the ride.
