Guide Review - Rhonda Towns - I Wanna Be Loved By You
Rhonda Towns is an up-and-coming singer who is a real treat to listen to. Her music is not the typical cookie cutter variety that so many artists seem to subscribe to these days. And while you can hear the various influences in her music, the sound is all her own. The songs on the album have a very traditional sound while the lyrics touch on the positive aspects of dealing with relationships.“Somethin’ Better” is the second single from the album. It is a mellow song that says things are kinda like love, but somethin’ better. The lyrics are very well written and Rhonda sings with pure emotion. That statement really holds true for the whole album. The whole thing is filled with quality material. She has some mellow songs, some ballads like “Those Were the Nights,” a couple of up-tempo songs and she also includes a powerful version of “The Lord’s Prayer.” It was tough to pick favorites because I liked them all, but I really liked “Plenty More Love,” “Go On With Yourself” and “Calm Before The Storm.” The bottom line is that anyone giving this newcomer a shot will not be disappointed. She will become a fast favorite and you will enjoy the music the album has to offer. You can’t help but be drawn in by the honesty and emotion that the music holds. Rhonda Towns is a breath of fresh air in the often stale atmosphere of today’s country scene.
