Editorial Review:
Serious artists don't usually get discovered via TV talent shows, but this 21-year-old former Nashville Star finalist has become an important songwriter and vocalist with her debut album, Kerosene, which immediately sprang to the top of the country charts. Overall, it's a set of amiable country pop, but the title track and "What About Georgia?," which open the disc, are rock songs at heart--driven by a hard-smacked snare drum and layers of guitar. But what's really at the core of these excellent performances is Lambert's romantic lyrics and versatile singing. When she's playing the angry lover in "Kerosene," she's loaded with punky attitude. When she's brokenhearted and moving on in "New Strings," her soft, delicate tones and gentle phrasing perfectly capture a rich blend of sadness and hope. There's even a bit of Dolly Parton's sweet vibrato and rustic charm in "Me and Charlie Talking," a nostalgic contemplation on love and life's simple virtues. Lambert authored or co-penned 11 of Kerosene's dozen tunes, but what she's really written is the first chapter in what may be a long, impressive career. --Ted Drozdowski

Rating:  - I love this CD!
I didn't think that I would love this CD, but it really surprised me.
I really love the song "Greyhound Bound for Nowhere". Her voice just captures you. Amazing.
Rating: - I Love It
This is a great cd at first I didn't like it but now its all I listen to! I Love "Me And Charlie Talking" "I Wanna Die" and "New Strings" great Job Miranda!
Rating:  - Maybe, But Not Yet
At 24 years old, Miranda's tracks sound like a 14-year-old's. Kasey Chambers she ain't. Might be able to give a good delivery on a recording when she's 34 years old...but not yet.
Rating:  - Country Women
Yes, a good solid easy to listen to female country singer. She has much to offer.
Rating: - Miranda Lambert-Kerosene
Country, acoustic and southern rock from a beautiful and amazingly talented girl. Third place finish in Nashville Star???
