5.0 out of 5 stars Her album to howl!, Jul 1 2004
By Christopher Bubb "Proud to be ME" (Saline, MI United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
When I was in middle school, everyone in my family - except me - was a country music fan, and my dad received this album as a gift. I was familiar with Lorrie Morgan already through hearing some of her older music on the radio (since my parents always had country music playing), including classics like "Watch Me" (my favorite song of hers), "Except For Monday," and "What Part Of No." Though I claimed not to like country at the time, there was something about this album - which spent a LOT of time in our CD stereo - that captivated me. This entire album is full of interesting, engaging, well-written and occasionally witty songs, especially "Exit 99," "1-800-Used-To-Be," and the title song, in which Lorrie names off the colors of the makeup she's putting on as she gets ready to leave her louse of a lover: "Red is for the anger that you put me through... /An iridescent yellow for the coward that you've been," and so on. I also used to love singing along with "The Hard Part Was Easy," which features a guest vocal by Alison Krauss (which, to my untrained ears, sounded like Dolly Parton the first time I heard it). The real standout moment on this album, though, is the breathtaking "If You Came Back From Heaven." That song could move even the most stoic person to tears. It's the perfect song for anyone who has lost someone dear to them. Country radio station WYCD in Detroit used to get a lot of requests for that song, and yet I don't think it was a hit - maybe someone can correct me on that. Mariah Carey's similarly-themed "One Sweet Day" has nothing on it. Another favorite is "Evening Up The Odds," which just screams "adult contemporary classic" - if it had been recorded a few years later, after Shania Twain and Faith Hill hit big on the pop charts, and had been promoted to mainstream audiences, I think it would have done well. I remember being shocked at the time that I never heard it on the radio. Then there's her version of Jeannie Seely's 1966 classic "Don't Touch Me"... can you tell I'm partial to her ballads? Of course, all of this would mean nothing were it not for the flawless performance given by Ms. Morgan herself. She's got one of the most unique, expressive and beautiful voices in country music. She sounds like she puts all of herself into each song. There's a little Dolly, a little Linda (Ronstadt), and a lot of talent there. Lorrie is truly a gifted woman, and it's sad that she's faded from the country scene in recent years while marginal talents like Kenny Chesney go platinum. Thank you Lorrie, your fans still love you even if country radio doesn't.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent album, Dec 30 2000
By G. Sawaged (Canada) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Lorrie Morgan did it again with this 1994 release. A good mix of songs, my favourite happens to be "My night to howl", a fun up-beat song. But every song is good. With some help on background vocals from Alison Krauss, Billy Joe Walker Jr, Pam Tillis and Sammy Kershaw, this album is a winner. Clever lyrics, good music and Lorrie's distinctive voice.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very Underrated CD - This is her best album, Feb 7 2000
By Mark (San Francisco, CA) - See all my reviews
I have all of Lorrie's CD's since 1989's "Leave A Light On", and this is my overall favorite. With songs like "Heart Over Mind", "Warpaint", "My Night To Howl" and "The Hard Part Was Easy", this album is classic. But the good stuff doesn't end there, as there are some beautiful ballads here also. "Exit 99", "Evening Up The Odds", "If You Came Back From Heaven" and a classic remake, "Don't Touch Me", all make this album one of her all time best, if not THE best. Highly Recommended.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic album! Never a dull moment
There are so many more men than women singers, so it seems. And some have a few hits and they move over for the next one. Not this woman or this album. Read more
