You'll always be My Father--Sara Evans

[anthonyeaston.livejournal.com]

I think that the most powerful thing about Sara Evans glurgey ballad of a F(f)athers love, is that the assumption that no matter what you do, G-d or daddy loves you. It's strange to live in a world, esp. a christian milleu, where that isn't obvious.

The rest is strained, like her voice can't handle the material, and the music is so common, there must be a button to make it a studio preset, and the writing is awfully cliched, and has a parrell taht is overly simplisitic...in fact the theology is lousy. But the inital message, and her earnestness provides a tender complexity, especially considering the recent history.
