"You Just Get One" was originally recorded by Ty Herndon on his 1995 debut What Mattered Most, and B. J. Thomas later released his version of "You Call That a Mountain" in 2000 from his album of the same name. Billy Hoffman also recorded the song on his 2000 album All I Wanted Was You. Bonnie Tyler covered the title track on her 2019 album of the same name.

Critical reception

Jeffrey B. Remz of Country Standard Time described the album as "pleasant enough sounding" and "usually maintain[ing] country sensibilities" although Remz said that it "produce[d] no surprises".[1] Allmusic critic Jack Leaver, who gave the album two-and-a-half stars out of five, called it "a mostly mellow set[…]that should appeal to the fans of the Dave Loggins-meets-John Berry school of country pop."[2] The San Antonio Express-News called it an "impressive debut".[3]
