I have faithfully bought all of LeAnn Rimes' albums as she has released them, and I will admit that at one point "Sittin' On Top of the World" was my favorite CD, but now I realize, this girl needs less remakes, and more original stuff. If she's not careful, she's going to fade into the background like any other ordinary teen idol. She has a fantastic voice, but she needs to go back to original things. Why does she think we all liked "Blue" so much? "Blue" was an original single, not a remake! LeAnn, please, where's that sweet little country girl with the big voice we all once knew and loved? Unless you are a die hard fan like me, I wouldn't really recommend this album.

I hate country music, but I love LeAnn Rimes! To all of you out there chastising her for sounding too Pop, LAY OFF!!! If you as fans try to compromise an artist's art, then it becomes meaningless. If you like Reba and Brooks & Dunn, Faith & Tim, George or Garth, Dolly or Tammy, fine. Continue listening to them. DO NOT try to compromise an artist. I have a cousin who's sold over 12 million albums in the rock genre, believe me, it just doesn't work. Sittin' On Top of the World is great. I just loved it, because of the guitar sounds, it's so different from anything else in the Country or Pop genres. This album is a perfect blend of the two. My favorite tune is 'Nothin New Under the Moon' (track 7). It's got a groove that makes me dance around my bedroom. Track 10, 'More Than Anyone Deserves' is LeAnn's first co-written song that has been released and is a bonafide winner. It is the best ballad on the disc. You go girl, if there ever was a person I roo! ted for in the music business (besides my cousin), it is LeAnn and I do. I knew she was somethin' special when I saw her on Star Search! I can't wait until she gets to be 18 or 20, what an artist she is and can be!

When I first listened to this album, I thought "Wow! What an awesome CD!" However, the more I listened to it, the more I disliked it. I started noticing all of the errors that are contained on this album. First of all, I agree with previous reviewers: the production on this album is ridiculous. Each and every song is over produced. LeAnn's voice is magnified (which is unnecessary) on every song, and most of them have an echo! Also, very little of the material on this album is original. Too many remakes. And those of you who congratulated her for the "original" song Rock Me: That song isn't original! That was a remake, too. It was recorded several years ago by country singer Deborah Allen. Also, LeAnn sings far too many pop songs on this album. I realize that country-pop is what's "popular" today, but I think you have to draw the line somewhere. I mean, a "country" artist singing a Prince song is absurd! Not to mention the pop remakes she did of Jan Arden and Amanda Marshall songs. This album should not have been in the country genre. There is very little country music on the whole CD. In fact, there is very little good music on this CD period! Her dad needs to lay off the production and lay off the magnification of LeAnn's voice. I wish her better luck in the future. It's sad to think that she's so young, and yet her career may have ended before it really ever started.

This is an excellent collection of a pop and country songs that just put you in a good mood. LeAnn Rimes voice is so clear and powerful that it will just blow you away. This album captures such an innocent sound and Leann sounds just like a sweet country girl. The tracks "Rock Me" and "Undeniable" are the albums strongest songs and LeAnn does an amazing performance of Prince's "Purple Rain". My opinion is that this is LeAnn Rimes strongest album and is a must for any fan of hers.

I became a fan of Leann's when I bought "Blue" and I bought all her albums, though not in the order of release. When I bought this one and listened to it, I didn't really like it that much. I have to admit that I have only listened to this from beginning to end only twice. Also, the number of songs(15) is a little too long for me.
