Collin Raye Album: “Can't Back Down”

The song "Ain't Nobody Gonna Take That" is especially meaningful. I've seen the video and it brings back memories of attending baseball games with my brother. The last part, with his son, brought goose bumps, it is so moving. Collin has a very strong voice and injects so much meaning in to all of his songs. This should be a best seller. I have not been a "country fan" and never bought any "country" CD's. After seening the video and hearing some of the other songs from this CD I will certainly buy this.

This album is even better than the last! There are no really rockin' songs, but the love songs make my stomach flip. He has a way of building songs up until the end that makes them unforgettable! He also has songs that address more than love, such as "What I want" and "Dear Life" that encourage the listener to have faith in life itself. This album is enjoyable, relaxing and inspirational.

Ok, being a die-hard Collin Raye fan I would give him a 5 star rating, but this ablum is not up-to-par. First, it need studio help, because his voice is too high. Last, I personally miss the poppy beat to his music. I love "What I Need" and "ANGTTFM". Two beuitful songs. It is worth your buy
