"This album is very aptly titled. When you have a beautiful voice deliver beautifully written songs which have great lyrics and sheer melody and are superbly produced the end result that you get is "amazing ordinary things".
When i first heard "more than this" from the album i was so moved and amazed by its sheer beauty that i could not get it out of my head for days together. All the songs are so unique and original that's it's hard for me to pick my favorite ones. My personal favorites apart from "more than this" are "riding way","laughing", "angel inside", "motherlode", "always" and "my only one".
Anne's music has a haunting quality about it that refuses to lose its appeal no matter how many times you listen to it. Its beauty and magic sustains.
For all those of you who have not heard anne yet, this album is unlike anything that you've heard before and you don't know what you're missing!"

An Ordinary Piece of Brilliance

"To say this is an excellent album is to grossly understate the case. When you think how seldom you encounter a recording in which every song is good, think how even more rare it is to find an album in which every song approaches brilliance. From the pop perfection of "Angel Inside" to the sultry rhythms of "Walking Devotion" there is not a wasted moment on this CD, not a single misstep or derivative arrangement. The music is fresh and alive throughout and leaves you humming and, quite simply, feeling good. The only recent CDs that come close to "Amazing Ordinary Things" for sheer enjoyment value are Aimee Mann's soundtrack for Magnolia (the songs she sings), and Sarah Harmer's debut CD "You Were Here". Buy Anne McCue's CD and listen to it over and over again. I guarantee you will not get tired of it."

"I recently went to a "Heart" concert where Anne was the opening performer. While the rest of the crowd wondered into the venue waiting for the main band to play, I sat mesmerized by Anne's music. She has a very unique style and a beautiful voice. I bought her CD at the concert during intermission and only wish I had bought more to give to friends. I was discouraged when I couldn't find the CD at our local record stores and was excited to find that Amazon does carry it. It is worth every penny that you invest in this wonderful CD... I stongly encourage you to give it a try."
