| Editorial Reviews:
Amazon.com Texas-born Lee Ann Womack made bold new strides with her landmark third album, 2000's I Hope You Dance. With Something Worth Leaving Behind, she's delivered yet another impeccable, mature, and emotionally powerful song collection that will no doubt resound just as dramatically with listeners. Soulful, inward, aching, and cautiously celebratory by turns, these exquisite songs and masterful performances are anchored by the timely and hauntingly introspective title tune. Among the 12 other gems are a pair of powerfully rendered Julie Miller originals (the wailing, teeth-gnashing "I Need You" and the eerie, medieval-sounding "Orphan Train"), a wistful Bruce Robison-penned confessional called "Blame It on Me" (to which Robison contributes harmonies), and an angry, show-stopping Matraca Berg sendoff called "You Should Have Lied." --Bob Allen

Just fine January 17, 2010 Colleen E. Van Kraats The seller stated the condition and it is exactly as I was told. The case alittle cracked but the CD was just fine and for the price, it was a steal.
I Need More Instructions January 22, 2009 Dmitri Ulinov (California, USA) Back in 1999, nearly a century ago now, I decided that I would do whatever Lee Ann Womack told me to do. In 2000, Lee Ann hoped that I would dance.
I danced.
Then came this CD.
I think that Lee Ann was trying to tell me to leave something behind, but I wasn't sure exactly what I was supposed to leave behind. True love? Footprints? A used 3 Musketeers wrapper? What?!
Tell me Lee Ann. Tell me what to leave behind! I await further instructions.
Worth Owning but not Lee Ann's Best August 27, 2008 Clinton Ervin (Murfreesboro, TN USA) Lee Ann Womack is one of, if not the most authentic country singers, especially female, to break through and become a genuine star. Through this she has been true to her roots, deviating toward pop only slightly with "I Hope You Dance" and this 2002 release. Her sexy pose on the album cover reveals how Lee Ann was being marketed at the time, contrasting with her vocal style and earlier material. This is a good CD, however, with mostly excellent songs and trademark stirring traditional vocals. She may be the only woman in mainstream country who can get away with veering toward contemporary like this without "selling out."
The title track is a poignant and touching combination of traditional and pop (guitar solos, etc.). "He'll Be Back" transports the listener back to a simpler time, and this kind of nostalgia is hard to pull off without sounding awkward or cheesy. This succeeds. Several other ballads, like "I Saw Your Light" shine brightly as well.
I disagree with some about LAW's music "evolving", meaning transforming into pop/country, and I believe that her subsequent releases substantiate my opinion. However, record company fingerprints and expectations are all over this CD. She is versatile and pulls it off this time but never crossed over permenantly. This slickly produced effort is not Lee Ann's forte. I recommend this CD to both her fans and lovers of more contemporary country.
Classic Leann Womack October 8, 2007 Stephanie J. Krempasky (Illinois) I love this CD. I am really glad that Amazon had it, because I couldn't find it to purchase anywhere. My favorite tracks are 'He'll Be Back' and 'Forever Everyday'. If you like Leann Womack, you will love this CD.
still worth checking out. February 23, 2005 Polexia 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
i'm kinda torn on how many stars to give this CD.. cause i love/like 7 of the 12 songs(i'm not counting song 13th song since it's just a 2nd verion of the first one.)i give it 3 and a half-almost 4 stars....so i set 4 stars, cause i really like Womack as an artist, i love her voice and most of the songs she has recordered befor this one. i like the sound she tries to build for the cd, and she almost makes it, but i'm not that crazy about all the songs.and thats why im giveing it 3 1/2 almost 4...but this is not one of my fave Womack cds....
i like the first 6 songs, and i knida like songs 7 i need you.. i like the vibe of the song, but then i kinda fall of. her voice sounds really great on this album, she is better then ever in that department, but not all the songs are as good. The lyrics are good on almost every song, but from song 7 and out, some of the melodies are not really down my street. though track 10, surrend is pretty okay, especialy if you listen to it in head phones, but still it's not as good as any of the first 6 songs. And i like the song "closing this memory down", i like the lyrics and her voice on this song... but it's not a 5 star song in and off it self.
even though this si not a flawless album, it's still worth checking out. casue some of the cuts are really amazing and worth a listen. so i would recomend to check it out.
