I am sure that "Best Days" will be a hit. "Rocks" probably is more lively when you hear the full version. If you listen to Kellie's live version of the song, the song doesn't take flight until after the second verse. "One Last Time" is also gorgeous. Kellie is such a talented young lady, I think this CD will be fantastic.

"Rocks Instead of Rice" already reminds me of Lee Ann Womack's "I'll Think Of A Reason Later." What's with rerecording a song from the first CD? Sorry if this has been discussed but I'm not reading 12 pages of posts, haha. Sounds pretty good! I'll definitely buy it. It was going to be the 4th single off STG but they decided to release the first single off the new album (DYKYB) instead. But they re-recorded it and put it on the new album so they could still release it as a single later on. Kellie said it will definitely be a single this time. Really glad that it'll definately be a single. I think it'll do great for Kellie on the charts. I just love her voice and enthusiam!

Is she also performing at Dick Clark's Eve?? Don't know yet. But "Best Days" should be her current single when this happens so maybe they'll have her and Taylor perform it. Here's another (different) "Best Days" sound clip: LINK

How much is Kellie expected to sell? ANyone have any ideas, she sold 79k 2 years ago...so maybe 75-80 would be good....and since Jewl & Jessica Simpson both sold around 60-65 mark and both are long time established artists will Kellie be the same. I would love if she could do 100k but i doubt that will happen!

I would love if she could do 100k but i doubt that will happen! I haven't heard anything about it. But I would think (and hope) that she would sell more than Jewel and Jessica. I would guess STG numbers. Maybe a little more. The album has two different deluxe editions. One on iTunes that includes 3 bonus tracks. And one available everywhere else that includes a DVD. Hopefully that will help. And it looks like the album will be cheaper than STG was when it was released. Plus, a lot of Taylor fans will be buying it because of BDOYL.

her album is being released in 2 weeks, less than actually. no way "Best Days" will be her current single. "Don't You Know You're Beautiful" is nowhere near being done yet.

I didn't say it would be her single when the album's out. I said it would be her single when she does the New Year's Eve thing.

90-second clips LINK"One Last Time" is just gorgeous. Her voice has never sounded better. It is now without a doubt my favorite on the album. And I agree with Kellie that it's the best she's written. Love the production on "Best Days". Nice touch with the strings. "Rocks" on the other hand... I'm so disappointed. Did Chris Lindsey listen to the lyrics? It sounds like she's singing a cute little love song or something. ------------------------------------------------------------ Kellie's on the homepage of CMT.

Kellie will emerge from the low key success she's had with this album. She REALLY shines on this material.

I'm hoping Kellie can go gold with this album! That would be great for her! She doesn't have the huge backing by country radio like Carrie or Taylor or the cross over apeal, so she will never reach their sales, but she is still great! I hope she can also get a top 10 hit this time around I wonder should have done it!

^ All three of the singles from her debut should have gone top 10.

I'm fine with Things that never crossed a mans mind not hitting top 10. Red High Heels should have went top 10, but I wonder possibly should have hit the top spot and is such a great song. Kellie is such a great entertainer and I only hope for more hits to come! Where is this at right now?

They added "Best Days of Your Life", "Somebody to Love Me" and "Rocks Instead of Rice" to her myspace. LINKI like the production on "Rocks" much better now that I've heard the whole thing. I still think her voice sounds too sweet but judging by the giggle at the end, that's what they wanted.

I listened to the entire thing like I said I would and still am unimpressed with "Rocks". It's much more pop than country to me musically yet much more country than pop lyrically, which makes little sense. The idea is pretty original and it's not horrible or anything, but I can't imagine it doing all that well on radio like everyone on here is expecting.
"Best Days", however, is hands-down her best song to date. Very, very clever writing. Great choice for second single.

I think Kellie's new CD is kick - a*s. I think it's going to really make her soar. I love the new songs - they are top notch! She's my favorite artist in country music right now.
