Format:Audio CD
This is the most traditional-sounding of Reba's Mercury releases – not quite as traditional as My kind of country and the three albums that followed it, but close. It was Reba's last album of original material for the label, so perhaps she recorded just what she wanted. (Yes, I know about the album Reba Nell McEntire, but that was a compilation of unreleased recordings, released after Reba had left Mercury.) The album contains a great mix of up-tempo songs and ballads.
Nickel dreams is a song that inspired Tanya Tucker, who never got around to recording the song but used the title for her autobiography (a book definitely worth reading). Tanya said that the song could have been written about her.
Reba wrote Reasons, which is a song full of the kind of metaphors that traditional country fans enjoy but that often alienate the uncommitted, who don't always understand. To explain – Reba prefers steaks to hot dogs because steaks are better quality. Reba wants only the best.
There are many other fine songs here but, being an end-of-contract album, it probably wasn't promoted as much as it might have been. Nevertheless, this is a fine album that all fans of Reba's traditional country albums should seek out.

ARE YOU REALLY GONNA LOVE MEEEEEEEEEEEEE????

Format:Audio CD
So sings a longing Reba in what has to be one of the finest songs she has ever recorded! I can listen to that one song and never get tired. If you want to learn how to sing you should hear Reba on that song "You Really Better Love Me After This". Its a song that would make the hair on the back of your neck stand up!!!!! This album is worth a mind of diamonds for that song alone!! Reba if you're reading this, please, please, resurrect this song and put it in your live show! Its the most beautiful, haunting song you've ever done!!!

STUNNING!!!
22 Sep 2005
Format:Audio CD
One reviewer pointed out that Reba's time at Mercury was a waste. I disagree. She recorded some of her best songs there and this album is proof. It contains some stunning Reba stuff with tasteful (not loud) production values. Today Reba is loud and over the top. On this CD though she doesn't oversell and realizes that too much of a good thing can hurt. She wisely understates here and thats what makes this one so endearing! I love it!!
