Although the release of this album was not supported by LeAnn Rimes herself... it is worth a listen to. The songs on this album are a patriotic look at the USA society as it currently stands...

The highlight of the album is "Holiday in your Heart" which was in fact recorded by Rimes many years ago. This is the most upbeat and worth it song on the album. When listening to this album one cannot judge Rimes on the content, as she had no imput into the release of the album at all... what is good though it that the next album is due out 2002 and it will be a GREAT album!

This album was given a star rating of 4 - only because it is LeAnn Rimes!!

Always Mirren.

Everyone please realize that LeAnn did not authorize this album even though Curb is her record company. This is the second time Curb has gone behind her back and released an album without her input. The music on this album is outstanding! The music gets 5 stars. Curb gets 0 stars. LeAnn is working on her own album but with Curb in the way she isn't able to release it. Don't judge LeAnn based on these songs. Some were recorded many years ago. LeAnn has grown as an artist since then and should be judged on what she is doing NOW. LeAnn is one of my favorite artists and THAT is why I will not buy this album. Shame on you Curb. Why not treat your artists with respect?

It's wonderful to know there are still songs that uphold what is right and good in America. I can't believe there are people who don't like this album even though it may be some of her older songs. There are a couple of new gospel songs that are very uplifting,especially Sands of Time. This album is very much worth the time and money. C.T

To all you people giving this album less than 5 stars and saying things that aren't nice about her let me say something to you all "GET A LIFE!" This album sounds very nice and Leann sings damn well. Just because you can't sing like Leann, aren't famous, and don't have a lot of money...don't be jealous and take it out on her. I'm not a huge Leann Rimes fan, but this album sounds nice...don't be criticizing her because you're jealous! I was upset when Leann stuck up for Faith Hill on the CMA award incident by posting a rude statement against Carrie Underwood implying that Carrie did not deserve to win. That was wrong of Leann, and I believe that Carrie should have won and deserved the award. However, we are juding this album for musical ability, not because of what the artist did.

LeAnn Rimes is one of the greatest country singers ever. This album is like "You Light Up My Life part 2". The songs are mostly about grace and religion. LeAnn Rimes has a very beautiful voice but some of the songs had already been released before, "God Bless America", "I Believe" and "Amazing Grace" in "You Light Up My Life" and also "Broken Wing" in "Early Years". So, there's also six "new" songs. Most of them are traditional songs. Well, LeAnn Rimes is great and the songs are great but I'm not a big fan of these kinds of albums.
Stars: God Bless America, Put a Little Holiday in Your Heart
