Album Description
Every country artist once had a day job that pays the bills and fills the void between hopeful aspiration and bonafide success. However, never in the history of country music has someone taken a more celebrated path on the road to their country music dream than Julianne Hough (pronounced Huff). A triple threat as a singer, actress and dancer, Julianne is already known to millions of fans as the two-time professional dance champion on ABC-TV's top-rated Dancing with the Stars (DWTS). The show, which pairs professional dancers with music, sports, film and television celebrities, has become a cultural phenomenon and Julianne its top star. Though Julianne has been winning world dance titles since her early teens, her ultimate goal has always been a career in country music. 'I've always wanted to sing country music,' says the 19 year-old blonde. 'I've grown up with country music. I love how real everybody is, not just the artists, but the fans.' Recorded in Nashville, Julianne's debut disc reveals her appreciation for country music's roots as well as her fresh-faced contributions to the genre's future. She has a warm, textured voice that is equally suited to feisty up-tempo tunes and contemplative ballads, both of which can be found on her debut. 'I love story songs and message songs,' she says, 'but I also love quirky, fun, uptempo songs that make you want to just get up and move.'

 A disappointment November 13, 2008
Beatle Fan (USA)
Fairly routine country music fare, and quite disappointing. Julianne adopts a highly affected southern accent on most songs - it sounds forced and artificial (That Song In My Head, About Life, Hello). It's like you're not hearing Julianne, you're hearing her impression of how a country singer should sound. She would have been better advised to sing using her natural voice. Often the lyrics that emanate from her mouth are not at all believable (Jimmy Ray McGee, About Life). That might be okay if she was recording an album of cover songs, but these are new compositions. To sum things up, Julianne Hough - although a decent singer - is a country music poser.
Best song: Help Me, Help You.
Worst Songs: You, You, You; Hide Your Matches; My Hallelujah Song.

This cd is Julianne's first and I thought it was great! It is country music, but modern day country. It is lighthearted and fun, the way I perceive her to be as well. If you like Julianne, the dancer, you will like Julianne, the singer!!

The first time I heard Julianne sing it was amazing. Then when I heard the rest of her album I was AMAZED. They are all my fave except the last three which I think are sappy, but otherwise the CD is one of the best CDs ever. I hope she makes another one. :D
