Claire steps down, Lisa steps up

"Lisa has a beautiful voice and is a wonderful story teller! I definitely recommend this CD. You will definitely find one song, (if not more) that you can relate to something or someone in your life. Hopefully, Lisa has more stories to tell."

"Lisa's voice along with her inspiring lyrics have created music that inspires and frees the spirit. Her songs contain a variety of genre from love of the heart to the love for humanity. A CD that will be played over and over throughout time as the messages are timeless and travel beyond all borders."
She's done it!

"Sorry, didnt like this CD. Not necessarily my type of music I guess. I would definitely recommend listening to it on Lisa Chappells website before buying it, considering that it costs a whopping $34, which to me is very expensive for a music CD.
For any Mcleod's Daughters fans out there that are curious about this album because of a Claire's-death-induced-depression, I recommend that you preview the album. It will snap you back into reality and get you over season 3 of mcleods daughters in a jiffy. (not kidding, this is exactly what my mother recommended when I got to the end of season 3----she said "It's practically like grieving, here, this will snap you out of it", handing me the CD)
