    talent that should not be overlooked

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Jun 2, 2004

    Pros: a bluesy melancholy in her voice that is stunning

    Cons: truly I just wish it had more songs!

    Roberts is so talented, with a pure voice that seems mature and sure, that any thing that she tries seems geniune. I love the resignation that I hear in her tone, that feeling that the singer knows the levels of the lyrics--as a good actor knows the... lines of dialogue. Her voice wraps itself around the words with an ache that is country at its best. For example, the song "Just Cause We Can," which most contemporary singers would render as a simple upbeat pop song about a romantic get-away, comes with a subtle hint of desperation, so much so that it seems a plea from a woman who needs to get away from life. It feels right.Highlights are the slow tunes because they allow the singer to display her skills: "Rain on a Tin Roof" and "Wake Up Older"I love this c.d. Roberts SHOULD be a huge star--her talent merits it. But I fear that today's country will not give her the chance to be heard on radio. As I write this review, Redneck Woman is the number one song and Shania Twain's latest pre-fab hit tune (with the simplist lyrics ever) is number two, and Break Down Here is 35th. The world won't seem right if she's not a star. Read more Less

    No break down here

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  May 29, 2004

    Pros: Excellent album nothing bad here

    Cons: there aren't any

    When I first heard "Break Down Here" on the radio I thought it was a hit waiting to happen. I had no clue who sang it but I knew that it was one of the best country songs in a long time. I bought the CD because of the song. I read the liner... notes and listened. When I listened to it, I knew that this girl was here to stay. Julie Roberts has it all, looks, hit single, great CD, and even greater faith. Great Job! Read more Less

    Not Just Another Pretty Face

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  May 28, 2004

    Pros: Her Passion, Lyrics, She's Real

    Cons: She doesn't get enough radio play

    I first heard, Julie on CMT and I was blown away!!!! She has an incredible voice and amazing lyrics!!!!!! She, should be the next big think in Country music. She is much better than any of the singers on America Idol. They will sell millions based ...on hype and not talent. But Julie, is the real deal!! And she is a real person, she's not some larger than life music star.She is just a normal acting persona and she loves what she does. She has a passion in her music that can not be faked!!!!!!!! She is so pretty, o man she's an angel!!! She seems so sweet and kind I just adore her!!!!! Would love to meet her some day!!!I wish her the best and I hope her cd takes off big time!!!! We love in Bryson City Julie!!!!!!! Read more Less

    Best Country CD this year!

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  May 28, 2004

    Pros: Excellent choice of songs that really show off her amazing voice.

    Cons: The best song might not make it on the radio

    As soon as I heard the first few lines of Julie Roberts' song "Wake up Older," I was completely blown away. I was lucky enough to hear an advanced copy a few months ago and it has yet to leave my CD player. Julie is an amazing vocalist ...with a style that is unlike anyone on country radio. The songs her and her producer(s) have chosen for this album could not be a better showcase for her voice. She is at her best when she is singing the slower and more sultry songs (which are always my favorite kind of songs), but she also gives you a variety of musical styles throughout and pulls each one off flawlessly. I mentioned in the "cons" that the best song on the CD might not make it on radio...Though it has a questionable line (it's not bad, but I know how radio can be) deep in the song, I hope that everyone will get the opportunity to hear "Wake Up Older." It is an amazing performance on a fantastic song. I usually don't write reviews for any album, but I truly enjoyed this one and hope everyone will enjoy it as much. Read more Less

    Pleasantly Surprised

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  May 25, 2004

    Pros: She doesn't oversing, laid back bar songs

    Cons: sometimes she sounds like she isn't smiling

    I really thought this girl was another blonde haired dark rooted beauty they were pumping to make $$. After listening to this CD not just once, but MANY MANY times..I realize I actually like the thing. (gasp!)
