 Great CD! Oct 20, 2003
I have all of Terri Clark's CDs. She is a remarkable entertainer. Staying true to herself and not following others in her industry to pop, she continues to show her fans and others just why she is so loved by her fans. Terri is the epitome of womanhood in it's finest form. This is just another of her fine works.

Entertaining and very enjoyable Sep 14, 2002
Terri has achieved a measure of success in country music without ever becoming a major star, yet her albums are always of a high quality. This is my favorite. It has a great mix of uptempo and slower songs.Poor poor pitiful me may follow the Linda Ronstadt arrangement in general terms, but Terri's version is country, wheras Linda's version was pop/rock. All the other songs are original, co-written by Terri with various others. Neon flame is an amusing song in which Terri explains to her man that the man she sometimes sees at the bar isn't a threat. It's a piece of fun which (like the man at the bar) is not to be taken too seriously. ... Terri is more downbeat on Keeper of the flame, in which she senses her man is not that interested in her, but overall, this is a very upbeat album. I find it highly entertaining - and that, after all, is what music is supposed to be about.

 Pale Imitation Jul 28, 2002
After garnering solid goodwill with her debut, it would only be logical that Terri Clark would follow that set with an album following that blueprint fairly closely, which is what she does. It's too bad that the abundance of just-average material littered throughout fails to distinguish itself as anything other than a hollow shell of its' former self(the former self being the first album). She does start off strong, with both 'Emotional Girl' and her highly underrated cover of 'Poor,Poor Pitiful Me' reminding us of her way with uptempo fare, and the title track is a nice companion piece to the previous set's 'If I Were You'. Unfortunately, we also have dreck like 'Neon Flame' and 'Twang Thang', which are not only less-than-thrilling compositions, but show the Canadian Clark affecting her twangy singing to the point of irritation. Overall, this remains the least essential of Clark's recordings.

Fun and energetic! Jun 16, 2002
I love Terri Clark, and this is an excellent album! All of her songs are great on here, and my favorites are 'Emotional Girl' and Poor, Poor, Pitiful Me.' Her slower songs are pretty, too. What can I say? Terri is just fantastic! I'd recommend this album. Happy listening!
