""Nobody Love, Nobody Gets Hurt" is the first Suzy Bogguss project that I purchased! I've been aware of Suzy as a singer since around 1992, but I never realized just how talented she was until I heard this project! And this recording fully showcases her abilities and her incredible talent! There are lesser singers being promoted in country music these days, but this gal has got a voice that just won't quit!! "I Surrender" is one of the most beautiful songs you'll hear in country music today. "Just Enough Rope" is a great, fun song! "From Where I Stand" and "Somebody To Love" are both great! Harmony is the bottom line on "Train Of Thought"! This Suzy Bogguss recording is PURE ENJOYMENT!!!"
Just gets better with each album!

"Suzy never seems to disappoint her fans when they hear her new music. With the album Nobody Love, Nobody Gets Hurt, her talent for pleasing her audience is no exception. Suzy can take you on an emtional roller coaster with the groove of tunes like "Just Enough Rope" and then find your emotional side with songs like "When I Run." Suzy again shows that with each album she makes she only gets better! I give this cd 6 Stars!"
Her best since "Aces"!

"As usual, Suzy follows her own musical path and delivers a solid album of songs that has little in common with the typical ear-candy found on the country radio dial. Each cut here is distinguished by its intelligent lyric and wonderful, sometimes quirky melody. Don't be misled by the guest roster: Patty, Kathy and Trisha are barely audible in their background vocals. Frankly, that's all the better. Suzy's voice shines like it never has before, and the song selection is a delightful trip from blues to folk ballads to light rock to bluegrass. This is NOT BACKGROUND MUSIC. It's an album you'll actually listen to, repeatedly, and enjoy more each time."
Suzy is not losing her edge... She's simply refining it.

"It's refreshing to hear an album the artist wanted to make, rather than one that fulfills contract (or fan) obligations. Suzy has definitely fallen into the former vein with her more recent releases: "Simpatico", "Give Me Some Wheels", and her latest one "Nobody Love, Nobody Gets Hurt". With tracks ranging from the traditional Country sound ("Take Me Back") to Ballads ("Nobody Love, Nobody Gets Hurt") to more or less Adult/Contemporary ("From Where I Stand") Suzy seemingly has filled an entire CD with songs that you know would never be sensational hits, but you love them just the same. Suzy also has found a mix of songs that carry an interpretation/feeling only Suzy can put into a song (outside of her beautiful and clear vocals) while not sounding like they were rubber-stamp produced. Additionally, the CD produces a "real" sound with minimal effects that make it sound more like Suzy is right there with you, rather than in some cold recording studio, making this CD a great companion in the car."
