I'm Already There

Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com
In the Mark McGuinn-penned "Unusually Unusual," lead singer Richie McDonald swoons over a girl who's "absolutely unpredictable." If only the same could be said of I'm Already There, which fulfills every expectation one could have of a Lonestar album. As usual, the band's ordinariness is delivered at a highly competent level, and the recordings here are all catchy all the time. The band rocks out in an agreeably familiar way, making equal use of country, pop, and AOR conventions, and McDonald can hit any note he wants if he's given a running start--as on the romanticized rationalizations of a power ballad called "I'm Already There," this album's bid for a hit of "Amazed" proportions. The disc's most surprising moment, "Without You," is also its most disappointing. After a mumbled, emotionally complex verse ("Hurt, cry, pray to die / That's all I've got left to do"), McDonald and his mates suddenly launch into an inexplicably bombastic chorus that sounds like its never even been introduced to its own depressive heart. --David Cantwell

5 out of 5 stars Lonestar is always there.......2007-01-12

every time I hear this CD it hits home on a lot of aspects, it is good music to relate to

4 out of 5 stars I like it.......2006-01-06

I'm new to this music genre (country); in fact, "Amazed" was the first country song I ever heard in my life, almost a year ago. Ever since then I've been a country music fan. Last week I bought my first country audio CD, I'm Already There by Lonestar, and I'm really enjoying it. Of course I have a lot still to learn about this type of music, but for a beginner, I can say that Lonestar is a good band. Not A Day Goes By is my favorite song in this album, but the other ones are not bad at all.

2 out of 5 stars Copies Amazed power-ballad success way too much.......2004-11-18

Lonestar didn't really surprise me with their 2001 effort. I'm Already There and Not A Day Goes By suffers from "Amazed" syndrome. Amazed's 1999 multi-format mega success is spread all over this album, their wanting to sound like every '80s heavy metal band power ballad. Did they listen to Monster Ballads 2 too much while making this album in Nashville? I'm Already There comes off as very Diane Warren-ish in its sappy lyrics. Their wanting to be diverse as a country band is okay, but these songs don't work for them. These songs are just complete fluff and their other songs are far better than this.

5 out of 5 stars Its an album which i can relate to when i listen to a song.......2004-06-01

Every song on this album I can relate to.its the kind of album where when you listen to each other a memory in your past or present comes to you and thats a amazing for a band to do that with a whole album.I'm 16 and most people cant believe i like lonestar but their one of my favourite groups and their best ones are "i'm already there" and "Not a day goes by"

4 out of 5 stars Great!!.......2003-03-18

Upbeat...excellent songs...excellent group...this one is .5 points better than the last one...if they had .5 points to give! Go buy this album, you should not be disappointed!!
