Review Of "What If It's You"
New Reba McEntire album released November 5, 1996


Clearly no one but Reba McEntire could cheer up Election Day '96 like this. "What If It's You" is destined to become one of the favorites of our collections. If you didn't go rush out and buy it the day of the release, like we did, we encourage you to do so now. It has some great shots of Reba, great music from track 1 to 10, filled with lots of emotion and Reba McEntire fun.

In keeping with the RebaFAN RedHead Rating System, this album, out of 5 redheads, rates
4 redheads up!
Go out and buy this one! All your friends will be jealous that you got your copy first.

Okay, enough of that! On to the reviews...


"How Was I To Know"

This one is definitely a keeper, a undoubtedly my most favorite song on the album. This one should have been the first single, because it's great! If the first track tells you anything about an album, you have plenty to look forward to.
4 out of 5 redheads up!


"The Fear Of Being Alone"

Spoke too soon about the album, I guess, because I really don't like this song. To be honest, I haven't liked it from the first time I heard it. It's a bit too typical for me. It's a Reba, though, so I won't trash it too bad.
1 out of 5 redheads up!


"What If It's You"

Love it, because it really sticks with me. I've heard the song twice, and I almost have it completely memorized. It was written as a letter from a girl to her lost love, who thought this love was destiny. I'll play this one over and over.
4 out of 5 redheads up!


"I'd Rather Ride Around With You"

Very upbeat song about a girl who can't think of anything she'd rather do but ride around with her love. Overall, it's a good song, and I might listen to it over and over. It just has that nice country feeling going on!
3 out of 5 redheads up!


"It Doesn't Matter"

I found myself dozing off on this one. The words don't speak very loudly. Reba did this one as well as anyone could, but I don't think I'd spend too much time listening to this one. Boring!!
1 out of 5 redheads up!


"State Of Grace"

This one reminds of "Is There Life Out There," which happens to be one of my all-time favorite songs. "State Of Grace," a soon to be a real Reba classic, tells of a woman named Grace who quits her job at a department store to finally do what she's always wanted to do. You could listen to this every day and get something different out of it. Great!!
4 out of 5 redheads up!


"Close To Crazy"

This one will have to grow on me over a period of time. I can tell it's a good song, but it's not one of my favorites yet.
3 out of 5 redheads up!


"She's Calling It Love"

This a great foot-tapping song about one girl's puppy love. You couldn't possibly hate a song like this.
4 out of 5 redheads up!


"Just Looking For Him"

I fail to see much point in this song, but it might grow on me after listening it to awhile. If you're wondering... YES! I did like this one better than "The Fear Of Being Alone."
3 out of 5 redheads up!


"Never Had A Reason To"

Three words: I love it.
4 out of 5 redheads up!


It's a great Christmas present for all your friends.
Yes, there are some songs on this album that are destined to a life of elevator music, but the rest of them really balance them. No country music or RebaFAN should consider doing without this one. So, go buy it already!
