Right this moment, Kane Brown by Kane Brown. But I have been playing for months the eponymous album by Brett Young, possibly the best album released this year <3

"Gold All Over the Ground" and "Dying to See Her" back-to-back is such a wonderful 8 minutes of music.

I know someone's going to hate me for this. Sorry, I really like this record, and "Marry Me" is just stellar. The only song I don't really listen to often is "Leave Right Now". But it's far more mature than his first two albums, and I love the semi-autobiographical style. And I'm the kind of person who likes pop country. This has been a mainstay for me since its release.

Loving this! Really wish they'd try a single or two for radio!

Revisiting Come On Over for some reason. And it was a great decision.

Really enjoyed the album. Could've used more country elements but I still liked it overall. Wish it was longer too. Probably my favorite album of theirs and it always seemed to be their most forgotten.

I bought this album a few days ago (randomly found it in a record store) and I like it very much.

This really is such a great album, I know "If We Were Vampires" gets all the attention but "Tupelo" is my favorite.

I haven't picked my favourite song either but I already know that it's going to be one of the beautiful ballads where Alison's voice really shines in all its brilliance. Right now I really like Crazy As Me because of great lyrics (Whole chorus is great but the last line is just perfect - I can't find nobody as crazy as me). But what really makes me like Lonely Runs Both Ways is that it's so consistent. There is no bad song on this album and yet it's still very diverse. Sometimes a good bluegrass instrumental song with prominent banjo is all I want to hear.
Well talking about great albums - the album you are currently listening to happens to be my favourite album released in the past couple of years. Imo TWOTW is modern country music perfection.

You were doing more than just listening from that snap you sent me!
How is she not in the Hall of Fame yet? She's amazing! Love this album.
I'd love to see a label pick him up and give him some kind of push at radio. He's obviously not modern country but he's much more radio friendly than say Sturgill Simpson so there's a chance he can at least chart and get more exposure.

I could've easily put this at the top of my all time favorite for 2017...and plus he's just as great live. True story...when I was in LA last year at a Sturgill Simpson I was talking with some fans at the front of the stage before the show and mentioned that Sam Outlaw is someone they should check out; since then they've seen him twice and are hooked. I've seen him a few times already, but what makes him so great is that he's so kind and funny in person. Sam has an amazing sense of humor and is also very patient with each fan. I really can't say enough good things about Sam Outlaw...country music radio needs him more than he ever will. He's slowly building up his fan base enough that I think he'll be just fine! If you haven't checked this album out yet listen to the title track along with "Say It to Me," "Diamond Ring," and "Two Broken Hearts." I also really enjoy "All My Life" if only because he does a great job performing this one live. edit: the one poster that comes to my mind who I always think of when it comes to this album is sabre14...if you haven’t listened to this one yet you must... just seems like the kind of record you’d really like.

Easily one of my favorite albums of the 2000's it's perfect! I'm thinking of possibly doing a rankdown of her entire catalog after I'm done my current one and Terri Clark's. God "To Love You Once" is on now and I'm just

"Love The Way You See Me" is an amazing album. I like all 11 songs (yeah it's too short). "Drinking With Dolly" is my favourite. I love everything about this song - these verses really explain how I feel about music almost all the time: "Sometimes I think I was born too late Came into the world in the wrong decade I swear if I could I'd go back to the good ol' days"On top of great lyrics instrumentation is good as well and I really like her voice. I hope Stephanie Quayle make it big because this is the type of country music that I like.

and First time listening to them back to back!
Still a great album, sad they didn't do all that well but they weren't truly Country either. They fit nicely into the Americana field though!
This is still growing on me, the more I listen the more I like a lot of the material on here. There's still some clunkers but I'm very interested to see where he goes with album #2.
So 90's nothing really special here but it's solid enough! Especially since I think I paid $2.
Stephanie wasn't anything amazing in terms of vocals but I thought a lot of the songs were great. Love "Hopechest", "Once I Was The Light Of Your Life", "I'm Listening" and "Permanent Hurt"

Doesn't top The Way I'm Livin', but Lee Ann Womack always delivers. I feel bad for being a little skeptic when the handful of pre-release tracks came out, but I like all of them much more now and love the album overall so much, so I'm glad that I finally got it.

Listening to it right now! It's such a great album to just sit and listen to! "Hollywood" is gorgeous and is currently on! :)
I forgot how much I love this album, and I miss this sound from him. Hope we can get a few tracks in this vein on the next album!
Her next two albums overshadow this one but there's so many great tracks here. "Middle Ground" is one I always thought should've been a hit. And my personal favorite single of hers "You Win Again" is here!
Why did this only get one single? So many strong options on here it's a shame this didn't make her a star.
