Given the tightly controlled nature of American Idol, it's a wonder that the televised talent contest has never produced a winner who specialized in country music, since there's no segment of modern popular music that is controlled tighter than contemporary country. Maybe this thought was in the minds of and the rest of AmIdol's 19 management when they went into their fourth season in 2005, since as soon as fresh-faced Oklahoma blonde showed up in the audition rounds, the judges - alright, specifically - pigeonholed her as a country singer, even if there was nothing specifically country about her sweet, friendly voice. From that point on, she was not only the frontrunner, but anointed as the show's first country winner, which apparently proved more enticing to the voters and the producers than the prospect of the show's first rock & roll winner in the guise of the Southern-fried hippie throwback. Which makes sense: cute, guileless young girls have a broader appeal than hairy 30-somethings.

Which isn't to say that is as compelling or as distinctive as a personality or vocalist as: is still developing her own style and, for as good a singer as she is, she doesn't have much of a persona beyond that of the girl next door made good. But that's enough to make work, since she's surrounded by professionals, headed by producers and, who know how to exploit that persona effectively. While some of the songs drift a little bit toward the generic, especially in regard to the adult contemporary ballads, most of the material is slick, sturdy, and memorable, delivered with conviction. She sounds equally convincing on such sentimental fare as 'Jesus, Take the Wheel' as on the soaring pop 'Some Hearts,' and even if she doesn't exactly sound tough on the strutting 'Before He Cheats,' she does growl with a fair amount of passion. In fact, the worst thing here is her chart-topping post-American Idol hit 'Inside Your Heaven,' which is as formulaic as the mainstream country-pop that comprises the rest of, but with one crucial difference: the formula doesn't work, the song is too sappy and transparent, the arrangement too cold.
