{"product_id":"life-goes-on","title":"Life Goes On","description":"Amazon.com\n\nDon't expect any surprises from Life Goes On, this mostly uptempo showcase for one of modern country's more buoyant singers. After all, Terri Clark's made a 10-year career of wrapping her big-boned voice around stories of dreamers, lovers, and the heartbroken and turning them into hits, expertly and brightly accompanied by crack session musicians. Nonetheless, there are some outstanding performances here. The title track and \"Damn Right\" are pure pop, the former a catchy nod to the joys of life's Zen-like surprises, the latter a rhyme-packed ditty about an ex-lover. \"I Wish He'd Been Drinkin' Whiskey\" veers into classic tear-in-your-beer territory with its sobering tale of a split-up. The autobiographical piano ballad \"Travelin' Soul\" waxes about the joys and insecurities that come with the pursuit of dreams and gives Clark a chance to explore the soft side of her singing. She stays in heartbreak territory for the Dobro-and-acoustic-guitar-charged \"Everybody's Gotta Go Sometime\" and the stomping \"Tear It All Down.\" And \"Slow News Days\" is one of her rare topical numbers, gently admonishing our media-mad culture and urging people to look to their hearts rather than the headlines for what's best about humanity. --Ted Drozdowski\n\nReview\n\nA sturdy new album bearing an appropriately stoic title: \"Life Goes ON\".

She is one of very few female country artists who is truly an accomplished guitar player, a rarity in country music. Raised in Alberta, Canada, it was a long road she traveled to reach the heights she has achieved today. Her next album, Life Goes On will be released November 1st. Ten years in the making, Life Goes On is about real people and real situations. It brings Clark full circle, back to the things that first interested her in country music. The album recalls the days when line dancing was a national phenomenon, country music was on fire, and honky tonks were packed with people listening to Garth Brooks, Alan Jackson and Trisha Yearwood; which were also the days when Terri Clark first arrived in Nashville, at the young age of 18. The first single off the album, \"She Didn’t Have Time,\" a powerful and emotional ballad that is full of heart, will be released July 18th. Having spent years playing dive bars and entering talent competitions, Clark, a hard-charging traditionalist, hit the charts in 1995 with \"Better Things To Do\" -- and never looked back. Clark was the first Canadian female to be inducted into the prestigious Grand Ole’ Opry, and has been honored with CMA and ACM Female Vocalist of the Year nominations, as well as a string of hits that includes \"Easy On The Eyes,\" \"When Boy Meets Girl,\" \"I Wanna Do It All,\" \"Poor Poor Pitiful Me\" and \"Girls Lie Too.\" Clark is the only female solo country performer in more than three years with two #1 singles. Along the way, Clark developed a reputation as a to-the-wall, give-it-all live performer. She’s toured with many of her idols – George Strait, Brooks \u0026amp; Dunn, Wynonna Judd, Vince Gill and Reba McEntire on her way to being named the Canadian Country Music Association’s fan-voted Entertainer of the Year five times. What drives that connection to Clark and her music is Clark’s willingness to reach past the obvious for the real life bottom line. For close to three years, Clark was the only woman in country music to have a #1 with her hard-charging hit \"I Just Wanna Be Mad,\" a song embracing the notion that working through your annoyance can only strengthen a true relationship – a sentiment perhaps never voiced in a genre that often reduces love to falling in, out or apart. A prolific writer as well as performer, Clark’s first deal in Nashville was as a songwriter. Clark continues to write and penned many of the songs on her latest album, including \"Tear It All Down\" and \"Slow News Day.\" Clark is engaged and lives in Nashville.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: B0009X6VEM\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: DBV.B0009X6VEM.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Terri Clark\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Audio CD\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Individually inspected: Guaranteed to play perfectly or your money back.
