TOP 1. No News 2. Walking in Memphis 3. Heartbroke Every Day 4. Everything's Changed 5. When Cowboys Didn't Dance 6. Unusually Unusual 7. What About Now 8. Tell Her (only the radio edit; the album version is kinda lame. I wonder why their Greatest Hits has the radio edits of most songs, but kept the album version of this one?) 9. You're Like Comin' Home 10. Class Reunion (That Used to Be Us) 11. With Me 12. You're Like Comin' Home
GUILTY PLEASURE 1. Mr. Mom (I should hate this one for its cheesy soccer-mom vibe, but somehow it works for me) 2. Mountains (most of it is quite good IMO, but "them dang ol' hills" just sounds so corny and out of place)
BOTTOM 1. My Front Porch Looking In (what a waste of a good title!) 2. I'm Already There 3. Not a Day Goes By 4. I'll Die Tryin' 5. Let's Be Us Again (still like it more than I used to, at least)

Top 1. Walking in Memphis (everything about this cover is fantastic. Vocals, production, everything) 2. I'm Already There (sappy to the nth degree, but I'll be darned if it doesn't work for me. This is the song Lonestar had on the charts when I really began taking an interest in country in 2001, so I admit nostalgia plays a huge role). 3. No News 4. Unusually Unusual (I love the humor of this and the above song)
Guilty Pleasures 1. Front Porch Looking In 2. Amazed
Bottom None, really. Some of their songs like "What About Now" strike me as a little bland, but I wouldn't call them offensive.
Lonestar is a band I pretty much never go out of my way to listen to and I've never taken the time to listen to any of their albums, but they're fun to hear on the radio once in a while. "Walking in Memphis" is easily one of my most favorite singles of the '00s. Not familiar with "Heartbroke Every Day", "I'll Die Tryin'" or "When Cowboys Didn't Dance" - I'll have to change that.

Top: 1. No News 2. Everything's Changed 3. What About Now (their only big hit post "Amazed" I enjoy) 4. Unusually Unusual 5. Class Reunion (That Used To Be Us) (guilty pleasure) 6. Heartbroke Everyday (John Rich sang lead on this) 7. Walking In Memphis 8. Mountains 9. With Me 10. You're Like Comin' Home
Bottom: 1. My Front Porch Looking In 2. Mr. Mom 3. Amazed (one of my greatest life mysteries when I was a kid was wondering why this song was everywhere in sight and spent so freakin' long at #1?) 4. Not A Day Goes By 5. I'm Already There (not too bad but sick and tired of it to this day)

I'm Already There (not too bad but sick and tired of it to this day) I've just listened to a few of these and I'd like to revise this a bit. Top: 1. No News 2.
