2. "We're Still Here" Love it 9.5/10 and an awesome guitar solo
3. "Most of All" Indifferent, its okay, nothing special 6/10
4. "No More Cryin'" A midtempo that should have had happier lyrics but still real good. 8/10
5. "In the Rain" Okay we needed a rocker here. this is why i dont listen to the songs in sequence. A very sad sad song but brilliant as well 9/10
6. "Sun Shines Gray" (featuring John 5) 10/10. Love everything about this song
7. "You Belong to Me" I thought okay until I watched a fan made video (the day after the CD was released so wondering if it really fan made?) Now I love it 9/10
8. "Easy to Love" Happy lyrics with a 70s light rock vibe. Okay I guess 5/10
9. "I Need You" (The Beatles cover) A constant skip. cant even rate
10. "We Fly" Okay we already had a very good song that was beyond sad, this one is sadder and not as good 6/10
11. October in NY A VERY different Perry song, Perry Como it should be, but still good due to the orchestration 7/10
12. "Angel Eyes" Loved it from first listen, probably my favorite Perry song that made it on an album. 10/10
13. "Call on Me" A just fun song which the CD needed. Listened to enough and will skip. 5/10
14. "Could We Be Somethin' Again" Okay at best and will skip 5/10
15. "Blue Jays Fly" Not really a song but damn Perry, 3 songs that wanna make me seek therapy? Really though I can see him looking up at the sky after Kellie died and seeing blue jays fly...knowing that life goes on.
My Ratings:
1. No Erasin 6.5/10 Great comeback lyrics and like it more I listen to it.
2. We're Still Here 10/10 My favorite and love almost everything about it. Had to get use to the "Brother to Brother" and "Sister to Sister", but that's definitely a Perryism lol.
3. Most of All- 9/10 My favorite ballad and just great lyrics and meaning.
4. No More Cryin- 5/10 Not really into this song. Don't care for the bluesy sound to it.
5. In the Rain- 7.5/10 Another pretty good ballad
6. Sun Shines Gray- 8/10 One of my favorites. Love the tempo.
7. You Belong to Me- 7/10 Initially didn't care for it, but I agree with you, definitely like this one after watching the fan video.
8. Easy to Love- 7/10 Great positive, uplifting song. Nice change from some of the others.
9. I Need You- 4/10 Not a fan of this one lol.
10. We Fly- 8.5/10 I honestly really like this one. Its got a haunting, heavenly feel about it and it builds more and more as you listen.
Bonus
11. October in New York- 7.5/10 Such a different song that Perry has ever done, but I really like it. Very Sinatra/Bing Crosby type sound and Perry does a great job.
12. Angel Eyes- 6/10 Not bad. Very Motown sounding.
13. Call on Me- Skip it
14. Could we be somethin' again- 7/10 I like this one. Kind of a hidden gem.
15. Blue Jays Fly- 6/10 Another haunting one.
