For the second single off of "Growing Up Is Getting Old," Jason Michael Carroll decides to throw a curve and release a soft and tender ballad about how a parent will always love their child, no matter what. While a lovely thought, does it make for compelling music?

Terri Clark scored quite a few hits through out the 1990s and earlier part of this decade yet the going has seemingly gotten tough for this female hat act.  Why has radio stopped listening to Terri?  Is it the quality or the style (or both) of her songs that has changed?

Jason Jones is a recent signee to Warner Brothers Nashville and "Unlikely Angel" is his debut single.  Does the song help Jason Jones separate himself from his fellow new artist peers or is it simply another case of a talented singer matched with a 'bad' song?

John Rich transitioned into a successful solo career at radio with "Shuttin' Detroit Down." While that topical song hit too close to home to score a deserved Top 10 slot at radio, will this single follow it to the top of the charts or will it ultimately be passed over by radio and fans?

About this time last year Joey + Rory burst onto the national scene with their touching and romantic story and obvious love for each other.  With "Cheater, Cheater" the duo managed to score a Top 30 hit.  Will this song, a ballad released in the summer, find similar success?

Blaine Larsen recently moved from Giantslayer/BNA to Treehouse Records, the new label created by legendary manager Irving Azoff and  the Morris Management Group. Does this song, first recorded by Brad Paisley, stand much of a chance for success at radio? Should it?

It is a crime that Whitney Duncan's last single "The Bed That You Made," which really recalled the best of Shania Twain, wasn't a hit.  While many labels would cut and run after two failed radio hits, WB Records continues to give Whitney a chance.  Will Radio finally notice her?

While every country music artist is seemingly happy and upbeat this summer, Gary Allan dishes out a contemplative single with this song, the lead-off single from his upcoming album.  How will fans and radio react to a slow  song like this one during the fun of summer?

Phil Vassar scored a big hit last year with "Love's A Beautiful Thing" and now he is back with this interesting song that chronicles the change in a dear friend.  There's nothing like "Bobbi With An I" on radio right now but will that help or hinder it from becoming a hit?
