Though she started her career as a straight-ahead country singer, Shelby Lynne soon widened the scope of her music, incorporating such styles as big band and jazz into her songs. But it’s pop-based love ditties that inspire this track from the singer’s sixth album, I Am Shelby Lynne. Over an upbeat melody, Lynne sings of finding her way back to her lover. Lyrically, the song verges on schmaltz -- and the strings and near-smooth jazz interludes certainly don’t help. But Lynne’s rich voice, which only occasionally betrays her Southern accent, redeems the track, saving it from becoming a sappy pop tragedy. Still, hardcore country enthusiasts will want to skip this one, leaving it for fans of country-lite and carefree love songs. (This review refers to the non-remixed version of the song).
