History

The album includes two songs that McComas released between 2001 and 2002: "Night Disappear with You" and its b-side "I Could Never Love You Enough," which respectively reached numbers 41 and 46 on the Hot Country Singles & Tracks (now Hot Country Songs) charts. [1] In 2003, he charted within the country Top 40 for the first time with "99.9% Sure (I've Never Been Here Before)" at number 10, and "You're in My Head" at 21. [1] McComas later released a fifth single for Lyric Street, "The Middle of Nowhere," which reached number 43 in 2005 and never appeared on an album. [1]

Critical reception

Jeffrey B. Remz of Country Standard Time gave the album a mostly-negative review. He praised McComas's vocal performances on the up-tempo songs such as "You're in My Head," but thought that most of the songs were "pleasant enough, but no more." [2] Brian Mansfield gave the album two-and-a-half stars out of four in a review for USA Today , referring to McComas as a "likeable fellow" and saying that the sound of "99.9% Sure" "blend[s] agreeably on contemporary country radio." [3]
