"While I've enjoyed E Drive's past two albums, this one takes their talents a step farther, defining their impact in the country arena. The songs, "A Good Man," "Moments" and "Countrified Soul" are my favorites, but it's not like they outshine the eight remaining songs. Each time I listen to the album, I get something different out of the songs. I'm certain this CD will be at the top of my listening stack for quite a while. BUY THIS ALBUM! It's worth every penny! And if you get the chance, see these guys live. So much energy and fun."
Best Album Yet!

"I would have to say this is Emerson Drive's best album to date. I own (and love) both of their other CD's, but this one rocks! I am listening to it constantly. I don't think that I will ever get sick of it. The lyrics of most of the songs is just so profound, and they just speak to me. If I had to pick a favourite song, it would be a tie between "Moments" and "Everyday Woman." These are both slower songs on the album, but the lyrics are just so poignant and it just gets to you nand makes you think. Also, the songs are even better when you hear them live, so if you get a chance to, see these guys in concert! I had the pleasure of seing them play at a small bar in town, and I think it's was more intimate than it would have been in a huge arena, so that made is so much better. I love this CD and would totally reccomend it to anyone! (Even if you're not a big fan of country music in particular)"
Freaking sweet!

"I was always impressed sense I purchased Emerson Drive's first album, the one with "Fall Into Me." I always hoped that they'd hit a boomtown and create another album. And they did! It's a smashing success!
The first track "A Good Man" has an addictive instrumental ring and explains he just wants to be remembered for being a good father, brother, neighbor, and a friend. The recent number one hit "Moments" is a terrific ballad with a powerful message. A homeless man saves a lost young man from commiting suicide on the East Street bridge. It's just upsetting that one of his band memmbers were actually killed from suicide after the release of this song. My favorite track "You Still Own Me" says that no matter what he does, she is always in his mind. There is also a remake of the Charlie Daniels band's single "The Devil Went Down to Georgia" which even made me like the original version, too.
Countridied is a smashing hit from 2006, and I hope the Canadian country music group makes more albums in the USA."
An incredible album by an amazing band!
