Editorial Product Review:Item Description:\N
Amazon.com:Chris Daughtry starts his first post-
American Idol disc with a song whose title reviewers coast to coast will be grateful for: 'It's Not Over.' What an understatement. For the
Idol-watching rock fan's money, nobody--not even Southern-fried heartthrob Bo Bice in season four--stormed the stage with more raw talent. That it translates so well to a solo disc (
Daughtry was recorded with studio musicians; future discs will include a Daughtry-assembled band) proves all he needed was a little prodding, the kind the tube has gotten so good at. Here are a dozen songs that'll flick your rock & roll switch, whether you're a Creed fan, a club kid, or a mambo king: 'Used To' and 'Over You,' a couple of early tracks, ought to arrive bundled with a road map they're so highway sing-along-ready, and 'Feels Like Tonight' screws the lid on the premise that Daughtry can deliver a punchy pop-rock song without flinching. Elsewhere, the North Carolina family man lets his inner (and outer, actually) goatee- and eyeliner-type guy rip: his built-for-the-hard-stuff voice bites down appealingly on 'Breakdown,' a dark serenade to mental health, and also on 'What I Want,' an '80s-style fist-pumper featuring Slash. The loud mad dash of those songs leads to a midtempo wind-down ('All These Lives,' 'What About Now'), but as a mix, it works. Daughtry is a man of many moods--contemplative, explosive, insistent, humble. No matter which pokes through on a given song, he steadies it to a place as honest as it is accessible. Rare is the rocker who lays out so broad an on-ramp.

Chris Daughtry CD Good but CD cases always arrive broken!!!
I've really liked Chris Daughtry's music ever since he appeared on American Idol. Of course, I like some songs better than others. My major complaint is about receiving the CD's broken. They "ALWAYS" end up being cracked when I get them. For this reason, I'm not buying another CD from Amazon. I gave the item one star because of the condition of the case, not the music itself. I think people should be aware of how stuff arrives. Maybe Amazon will change things.

Wow
I was first introduced to DAUGHTRY on youtube where I watched a Tigger Movie music video. They used the song Home, and from there I looked into the rest of the album. The diversity of songs is great, and Chris has a powerful voice. Recommended especially if you're into rock such as Nickelback.

Daughtry CD
After continually hearing Daughtry on the radio at work, and liking the songs that I heard, I decided to purchase the CD. VERY wise choice on my part. The CD is great! It's been in my CD player since it arrived about a month ago, and it won't be coming out anytime soon.
