Critical reception[edit]

Country Music Australia said; "One of the most truly anticipated releases for some years, the groundswell for Beccy has been growing since her debut self-titled release 4 years ago. During that time thousands have enjoyed her vibrant shows around the country... Now here it is and worth every minute of the wait. Beccy has enlisted many of her friends in the completion of this one, starting with Rod McCormack as producer." adding, "Beccy's never been in finer voice, and the enjoyment of finally recording just shines through this one... A Bonus track is the recording at the Gympie Muster last year with Darren, Adam and Felicity of Dolly Parton’s "Do I Ever Cross Your Mind" which picked up the Golden Guitar for vocal Collaboration this year" concluding with "Beccy Cole is a sizeable talent to be reckoned with."[2]
