This is a great CD. I love the songs. Especially the sound Clouds. Eddie sings this one alone. My personal favorite is Lucky Man. Glad I chose this CD.

"Not a bad track on this album! If you are an MG fan, you will not be disappointed. The title song ranges from country ballad to gospel, getting you to chime in on the chorus. "Clouds" will rip your heart out and make you shed a few tears; Eddie sings it with heartfelt emotion. I am a big fan of Eddie's voice, but Troy really comes into his own on a number of the tracks - the best I've ever heard him."
Best Album Ever!!!!

"This is Montgomery Gentry's best album yet. From the first track to the last one. You'll be in amazement of how great their new album is. The first track is the title track "Some People Change". It is a remake that Kenney Chesney has done before them. In my opinion, Eddie and Troy sing this with so much passion it pulls you right into it. It's a song about people facing their inner demons and overcoming them.
Then "Hey Country" is a more southern rock style song and is a real catchy tune that we can all connect with.
"Lucky Man" is a song about realizing what you have, the great family you have, and good friends that would give you the shirt off their back if you needed it.
Another great song, "It Takes All Kinds", tells about how boring and messed the world would be if the whole world were the same. If we all were alike the world wouldn't go round the way it should.
"Your Tears are Comin'" is about your significant other two timing you. It's a song telling them that you can't break up with someone you loved without feeling a thing for them.
Then there is the heart felt, tear jerking song "Clouds". This song is about all the loved ones you have lost. It was co-wrote by Eddie Montgomery along with Jeffrey Steele and Tony Mullins. This song was written for Eddie's deceased father and son. You can feel all of Eddie's emotions when you hear him sing this powerful ballad. You will probably even shed a tear when you hear this song, believe me even I got teary-eyed.
"Twenty Years Ago" is also a heart felt song that Troy sings with all his heart. It's about a father and son that haven't spoken to each other in 20 years, over a little dispute, until his father was dying.
Next "what Do Ya Think About That" Is a song that is kind of similar to their 2004 "You Do Your Thing" single. It tells about a guys neighbor who doesn't really like him. The guy really doesn't care about what others think about him. It is a very catchy tune and makes you just want to sing along the whole time it's playing.
"Redder Than That" is a song about a class reunion but can be expressed as so much more. It's a song we can all relate to.
"A Man's Job" is about a guy's wife who divorced him for a younger man who is never home and breaks her heart. She looks back and regrets what she did and her ex-husband is telling her you can't expect a boy to do "A Man's Job".
"If You Wanna Keep An Angel" is a song telling about a bad boy that needs to straighten up and fly right in order to keep the girl of his dreams. Then there's the last track, "Free Ride In The Fast Lane". It is a song about the MG style of life that Eddie and Troy live. Always on the road running and gunning from venue to venue.
Overall this is the greatest country album you can buy. It has every type of song you can possibly think of. Songs that will make you happy, sad, and ones that just make you want to party MG style. This is a country album that is country with a twist of southern rock. Waylon Jennings with the sound of Skynyrd. I didn't know how they would make a better album then "You Do Your Thing", considering the fact they had two number one hits on it. All I have to say is that Eddie and Troy really worked hard on this album and it payed off. Every song on this album could be a #1 single. I highly recommend everybody to pick up their copy of "Some People Change". You won't be disappointed! If you are not a country music lover you will be after listening to this great duo perform these heartfelt, everyday life songs that you will relate to.
Great Job Eddie and Troy. This is your best work yet and you guys are always putting out better music. Get Your copy today!
You won't regret it!!

Montgomery Gentry "Some People Change" CD Review

"One of the best CD's Montgomery Gentry have done in their country music career, With a more country sound than past albums. Traditional Country is in these songs as well as songs that are more about Modern Country/rock. This CD will appeal to traditional fans as well as modern fans, both will love every single song on this album. As well as people of all ages.
Heart-Breaking songs like "Clouds" and songs of hope like their first hit single "Some People Change" and a song about getting it right with your old man (Twenty Years Ago) makes this a very sad and inspirational album. BUT don't let that fool you! They also have their 'In Your Face' ballads like "Your Tears Are Comin"; "What do you think about that" and "A Man's Job" (which all happen to be break-up songs as well) And their famous party songs (Hey Country, Redder Than That) and a song that everyone can relate to (Takes All Kinds)
Bottom Line: These guys always deliver with a good mix of songs. They can sing songs that come straight from their hearts as well as pull off their Fun 'In Your Face' ballads. Plus, they have great voices and every song has a great melody and a very singable 'Singing Meldoy'. Songs that are Traditional, Songs that are Modern Country, make this a CD that both young and old, people of all ages, will love.
At least check it out. It is worth that much. I know you will flock to the nearest Wal-Mart to buy it as soon as you hear it.
Great job to MG on another great CD. Can't wait till I see them in concert again so I can sing the new tunes with em'"
Montgomery Gentry has another winner

"From upbeat to serious songs Montgomery Gentry's cd "Some People Change" conquers serious and the not so serious topics. From the title hit first song (which is still climbing on the charts and has been a video hit also) of the way people can change to the last song "Free Ride In The Fast Lane" the CD is solid.
The close to the heart "Clouds" is just one highlight. There is little more serious or heartfelt than remembering those who went before. On the heels of that is "Twenty Years Ago" - a defiance and pride catching up 20 years later and finding too much time has gone by and been lost forever.
"Takes All Kinds" observes vehicles and the different people sharing the roads and life "to each his own - it'd be a shame if we walked and we talked and we thought the same but that's just not what He had in mind." The upbeat and edgy "Your Tears Are Comin'" - not sitting around after a breakup but another way of saying what comes around goes around.
"What Do Ya Think About That" puts a humorous twist on complaining and gossiping people. "I don't give a durn what other people think what do ya think about that?" Continuing on with another look at 'be careful what you wish for' is "A Man's Job" - a tale of someone getting what she wants then realizing the consequences of getting it. "Redder Than That" can be seen as a class reunion song but is more than that too. "If You Wanna Keep An Angel" "you gotta learn to fly right" is straightforward in the message.
Montgomery Gentry knows their audience and this cd hits solidly with those fans as well as reaching out to new ones. Definitely worth adding to a country music collection and a highlight among October releases. It's country roots with a little bit of "attitude" but a whole lot of depth.
