No adds date has been set, but this'll be CDJ's next single. I like it, but to me it's not as immediately radio friendly as some of the other tracks on the new CD. It definitely is country, though. Maybe that's why it's been picked as the next single. I see it's release as a bit of a gamble, but I think it'll do alright. I'll predict #18.

It's an okay song.

CAROLYN DAWN JOHNSON
Die of a Broken Heart
Producer(s): Dann Huff, Carolyn Dawn Johnson
Writer(s): C.D. Johnson, S. Smith
Publisher(s): Just Another Girl's Music; Universal Music; EMI Blackwood Music; Shaye Smith Music (BMI)
Genre: COUNTRY
Label/Catalog Number: Arista 82876-62002-2 (CD promo)

Originally Reviewed: June 12, 2004
Culled from Johnson's new Arista album, "Dress Rehearsal," this plaintive ballad (penned by the artist and Shaye Smith) serves as a perfect showcase for the singer's sweet, affecting vocals. The lyric finds Johnson issuing the following plea: "Take me fast or take me slow/I don't really care how I go/In the daylight or in the dark/Just don't let me die of a broken heart." Backed by a sighing steel guitar, Johnson delivers the lyric with such tenderness and vulnerability that a listener cannot help but be drawn in. In a lesser vocalist's hands, the song could come off a bit maudlin, but Johnson turns it into a poignant look at heartbreak—something most people can relate to.—DEP

I didn't have really high expectations for this since it's not very radio friendly, but I'm shocked that it stalled at #52. She really needs to announce a new single to try and save Dress Rehearsal. It's a very good album, and full of songs that could be hits. My pick for the next single is "Head Over High Heals", though I like "He's Mine", "We Talked" and "Life As We Know It" better.

I'm dissappointed. I really liked A Room With a View. This album is not up to par.
