IGTB may not end up being a T10 hit, but I predict Jana will get her first #1 off this album. I'm not sure if Big Machine will let Warner release "Bullet" since it features Steven Tyler, but "Circles" sounds perfect for radio. I sincerely think that one will be a big hit.

I love all the pre-release tracks. I wasn't the biggest Jana fan in terms of her debut album. I know, I am most likely in the minority on that, but...THAT HAS CHANGED! Each of these new songs has a freshness which I feel her debut lacked. "Bullet" with Steven Tyler and "Boomerang" are totally fun songs. I think "Circles" will do well at radio, and should definitely be the follow up to "I Got The Boy." IGTB is still my favorite out of everything I have heard though.

Any predictions on the first week sales? My guess is a hopeful 25k+ Hopfully much higher though. I also Hope she goes number one on the country album charts, But George is killing it right now!

Oh wow, this album is incredible! I am so glad that I decided to splurge and pick this up yesterday ($10 for the deluxe at Target was impossible to pass up -- also love that it included "I Won't Give Up" because I missed out on getting that track with her debut). This completely blows her debut out of the water and there are so many great uptempo tracks on here that will hopefully give radio something to play! Beautiful ballads, too ("I Got the Boy" is easily in my Top 5 for best country songs of 2015).

The album was worth the wait. There's some solid single choices here to make for a good album era. I'm also really hoping "Circles" is the follow up single to IGTB once it peaks.
"Just Like In The Movies", and "Dance In The Rain" are the two tracks that standout to me the most. Both of them strike me as something Taylor could have released during her Fearless era. But Jana does a really good job at giving it a more mature sound.

"Circles" is great and I think it'd make a good single choice, but I personally think "Don't Touch My Radio" or "Boomerang" would be even better choices, so I hope one of those two is next. <3 Ideally, some combination of those three will be the third/fourth singles and *hopefully* both perform well. She's got a lot of strong radio-friendly tracks on this album.
ETA: She really stepped it up for this album vocally too I must add. I love the grit she puts into some of these uptempos like on "Pop That Bottle" and "Deal Breaker" and the raw vulnerability she shows on "Last Song" is wonderful... I was really surprised when she dropped "shit" in the first few lines of the song when I listened to it the first time. :o

This was a solid album. Circles and Bullet were my favorites.

I pre-ordered it through itunes but I plan to buy a physical copy sometime. Also "Circles" for next single please!

New bonus tracks "Deal Breaker" and "All I've Got," plus "Why Ya Wanna" (I guess to remind people that was her one big hit from a few years back lol) and "I Won't Give Up" (which was like an iTunes-only special on her debut I think).

Don't Touch My Radio is a hit just waiting to happen man I love the sass and energy. You can tell that with this album Jana is here to stay and man I hope she does she is one of my favorite newcomers. If there is one complaint can they get rid of Said No One Ever and Bullet both just didn't click with me whatsoever Bullet just didn't mesh well vocally and Said No One Ever is just way too childish for me to take seriously but still a solid sophomore album congrats to Jana anyone have any idea how this'll sell.

I have "I Won't Give Up" already but the two new bonus tracks are enough of a reason to go find the deluxe version. I just hope I can because there's no Target up here in Canada so I don't know if I'll be able to find it. :(

I LOVE this album! Her debut was great but this is MILES above it! Her voice reminds me of 80's Reba so much! There is nobody on radio with Jana's phrasing. Why she's not a bigger star by now is just a testament to how bad radio has been to talented women this decade. If Jana had been around in the 90's I have no doubt she would have had a career similar to Trisha, Martina, maybe even Faith! Jana is THAT good!

I'm always game for stuff I can't get here, haha. Unless my iTunes Gift Card I got two weeks ago for my birthday would work with Canadian releases not on us iTunes but it sounds like you've got a better, easier plan...

Sorry for being the party pooper guys...
Love: I Got The Boy Circles Dance In The Rain
Like: The Last Song Boomerang
Meh: Just Like In The Movies Love
Dislike: Don't Touch My Radio Bullet
Hate: Said No One Ever Pop That Bottle
This album had potential. When Jana is singing quieter tunes, she excels, but when she tries to hit those notes in the upbeat rockers, it's just....bad. This album could have been so much better if they focused less on the upbeat rockers.
Grade: 5.5/10

Even though I dislike her vocals, I gave this album a listen today. I agree with zack97 that this album had some potential with some good ballads but the up-tempos weren't that good. Two of them being flat-out unlistenable with "Bullet" and "Said No One Ever." "Circles" is a pretty good song and hopefully that will find its way to radio but I wasn't feeling this album. I'm actually bummed I haven't gotten into her because she's a great person and is very well liked here at Pulse...but I just can't with her voice, and some of the vocal arrangements on this album only exacerbated the problem.

Im so happy she was able to release this album, Thanks too "I Got The Boy" (which I hope can still get to Top 5 on radio - I Know too hopeful but you never know.)
My guess for singles are as follows
COUNTRY RADIO 1. LOVE 2. I Got The Boy 3. Dont Touch My Radio 4. Said no one ever 5. Circles HAC - (Hope they do this) 1. I Got The Boy 2. Dance In The Rain

^ I doubt we get 5 singles probably 4, so I'm really hoping they don't keep "Circles" as an album track it's much too strong to stay there. Also I don't think radio would like "Said No One Ever" and I' really hoping that stays off radio.

My favs in no particular order Love I got the boy Circles Boomerang Dance in the rain Last song Don't touch in the radio Just like in the movies pop that bottle Like Bullet( I don't love it but it's ok but the production is too loud ) Ugh Said no one ever(Jana is too mature for this song, I'd rather see Kelsea , Lauren Alaina , Danielle bradbery or raelynn have this song. She's too mature for this song)

Really enjoyed their album more than I thought I would. There's a couple that are annoying, but as a whole I like the album.

HDD first-week sales prediction: *Jana Kramer (Warner Bros. Nashville) 19-22k albums, 21-24k SPS what is sps? Sales Plus Streaming. In addition to traditional album sales, Billboard 200 now counts digital consumption using Track Equivalent Albums (TEA) and Stream Equivalent Albums (SEA). TEA equates 10 digital track sales from an album to one physical album sale, while SEA counts 1,500 song streams to one album sale. When Billboard started doing this, HDD also tracked SPS in their predictions. The Top Country Albums chart though still counts only traditional album sales so there will be times when you will see a different ranking of country albums on the Billboard 200 vs. Top Country Albums.

Time for my grading of the song
1. Boomerang 4/10 Jana's voice isn't meant for such fast paced song and the song was just so annoying. 2. Don't Touch My Radio 7/10. Eh I liked it as I just like Jana's sass however make it a country produced song. 3. I Got The Boy 10/10. Best song on the album hands down 4. Pop That Bottle 1.5/10. It's not annoying like a certain songthat's all the compliments I can give it. It doesn't take a genius to realize what this song is about. 5. Love 7/10. Good vocally solid production a little weak lyrically. 6. Circles 9.5/10. Such a solid nice love song that sounds so modern 7. Bullet. 2/10. Yeah my expectations weren't high coming in and well this song just no they don't mesh well vocally at all. 8. Dance In The Rain 6.5/10. This was just a little too boring for my taste nice sentiment. 9. Said No One Ever 0/10. Prime canidate for worst of the year after awhile this song gets stuck in your head and it is such a stupid song 10. Just Like In The Movies 6/10. Yawn boring filter nothing more nothing less. 11. Last Song 9.5/10. Really nice mature song and a really nice solid song.
Grade 5/10. Just way too rocky to like
