10. Mercury Blues
“Mercury Blues” bookends the album with another upbeat song. Like the stereotype of Country, a lot of the songs on this album are about being left by a woman.”
9. She Likes It Too
“She Likes It Too” was written by two former Jackson collaborators who effectively capture some of his loves (motorcycles, long hair, country music) and make it instantly identifiable with the man.”
8. Up to My Ears in Tears
“Up To My Ears In Tears” is more of a comical and upbeat version of being dumped, filled with some good guitar work. Jackson is good, new Country. He’s changed his style some since this album first came out, but it is good nonetheless.”

7. I Don’t Need the Booze (To Get a Buzz On)
“There is something a little hokey about the production here and with the exception of the Brent Mason guitar solos, the music for the most part sounds like by numbers karaoke backing tracks, yet in spite of that, it’s a good album”
6. She’s Got the Rhythm (And I Got the Blues)
” Alan Jackson has a real gift for delivering songs in a way that makes just about any song at least somewhat enjoyable. This was one of the definitive country music CDs of the 90s that helped solidify Alan Jackson’s place as one of the major country music stars of the time. I really enjoy it even after all this time.”

4. Tropical Depression
“The song that stands out the best of the album is “Tropical Depression”. Again, it’s a being dumped song, but everyone was on for this song. The lilting island flavor of “Tropical Depression” adds a nice change of pace.”
3. Who Says You Can’t Have It All
“Unlike Garth Brooks and Travis Tritt, Alan Jackson has never had trouble staying within the boundaries of traditional country music. His baritone twang is so authentic that when he sings about settling for a “burger and a grape snowcone,” you believe him.”
2. Tonight I Climbed the Wall
“All AJ’s albums are excellent and each song sounds like a number one hit. Great music, lyrics. Pure, real country. As a matter of fact, most of Alan’s songs sends of a happy feeling.Even the slower ones, the message in his songs are so meaningful. I remain an Alan Jackson fan all the way.”
1. Chattahoochee
“The album opens with the upbeat song about growing up on the river. “Chattahoochee” is one of the more upbeat songs on the album, and has a little catchy riff and staccato style lyrics.”
