Billy Ray has said in recent interviews that "Over The Rainbow" was included in the album as a tribute to the late singer, Eva Cassidy, who's own cover is now regarded as a classic. Like many of the other songs on this album, OTR is straight from this singer/dancer's heart and deserves to be called a tribute and not a copy. Nicely done. The entire album is very enjoyable and is yet another suprise from an artist who remains "current" in american pop culture.

In his own introduction of the album, Bill Ray closes with the following: I pray this music touches your heart and soul, for it is born out of mine. And if it does, then we have something in common...we are "Home At Last."

I have found more than one thing in common with Billy Ray who I must thank for the invitation to his home, a place Eva's fans will be happy to sit and have a listen for a while.

I am a relatively new fan of Billy Ray Cyrus' work, and I think this album is marvelous. Original material, such as "Ready, Set, Don't Go," sits alongside excellent covers of such classics as "Brown-Eyed Girl." Cyrus' pleasant baritone and energetic style on each of the songs make this a piece a classic.

What an awesome CD! `Home At Last' is flat out good music. Any of us who are parents will relate to the message and emotion in `Ready, Set. Don't Go'. Billy Ray wrote the song about his daughter Miley, but the first time I heard it I thought about my son growing up. It's a beautiful song that deserves to be heard on radio stations around the country.

`The Beginning' is also a fantastic song that I hope country radio will embrace. It has the potential to be a big hit on its own and hopefully it will be the second single from the CD. `Flying By' is also a favorite of mine. It talks about life flying by and I don't think there has ever been a truer song written.

Unfortunately there are a lot of people out there who call Billy Ray Cyrus a `one hit wonder' because of his mega crossover hit `Achy Breaky Heart'. Nothing could be further from the truth! People who think that have been missing a lot of great music through the years and `Home At Last' is another example of great music from BRC.

Ignore any negative reviews you have have read about Billy Ray over the years -- it's sour grapes. You'll be very glad you bought this CD...heck, buy his other CDs as I did a short time ago (after having rediscovered him after his stint on Dancing with the Stars) and I can't get enough! As you'll find, not all his songs are 'country'. He performs a lovely variety of arrangements. I love the sound of his voice..not only vocally, but I can hear his honesty and love for his fans and family through his voice.

Bias from living in the same hometown as Billy Ray, possibly. Bias to enjoying this new album, most likely. But what is most important is the bias I have to the songs that are portrayed in this newest Album. Some may proclaim this may be a comeback album, but would you consider a come back from someone who has sold millions of albums, had a hit primetime tv show "dancing with the stars," to a hit television series "doc," to a hit kids television series "hanna montanna." Billy Ray Cyrus has done it all. He has defied any and all odds that were ever placed against him. He has never once been ashamed of his hometown roots nor ashamed of his country factor. He is the real deal. The REAL McCoy as some may use in refference. We here in his hometown call him an inspiration and a figure to look up to. Others call him a great dad and cool actor/song writer/musician. Regardless, no denying the factor that Billy Ray has the "it factor" persona and the talent to back it up. What a great Role Model. In this new album, Billy Ray showcases his talents even further and provides the proof that he can not only sing but entertain. The songs are great and provide new edge to his previous flares. I wouldn't go on to label Billy Ray as country, especially with this new album. Instead, I'd just say he's got country talent with big city tones. Each song is hand crafted to bellow out inspiration and provide that uplift in emotion that makes you just wanna dance. Maybe that's fitting considering Billy Ray himself is a dance finalist, but the irony is more after the music itself. Dancing isn't the only thing you will do once you've heard this new cd, you will share it with a friend and enjoy it's every tune. If you are a Billy Ray fan, this song isn't just for you, it's EXACTLY for you. If you are not new to Billy Ray's work and want to fill a curious void, how about this CD to start? This man has got it, the looks, the talent and not to mention the entertainment factor. The real deal has proven himself time and time again and now... he's given those doubters another reason to give him another listen. It's without question, Billy Ray has done it again, he's produced great music that will be talked about years to come. Experience it for yourself.
