Summary: Aching Harmonies
Comment: Twin sisters Heather and Jennifer's appearance is misleading; this is powerful country/soul with a fun pop feel to it. They pack an emotional wallop, intimate and familiar at the same time with "She Aint The Girl for You." That tune sounds like a crossover success, likewise "You're Still Here" and "If Ever I Needed You." "I'm In" shines also, however "Somebody's Out There..." was the only song from II to reach the country top 20. This is an amalgam of styles, representative of girls from Philadelphia moving to Nashville.
Their debut album was stunning, but this one may be even better. They sing about desire, and you feel it. Their harmonies are instantly recognizable. This CD is fun and energetic. This is similar to Faith Hill, but I like it more. They've got some grit, but it isn't Tanya Tucker or Gretchen Wilson; its poppier than that. Some reviewers have compared this with early Dixie Chicks, but I'm not sure. Its hard to catagorize, so I won't try. Not every cut is equal, but its a strong album in every way. I recommend this highly and hope for the Kinleys return with more expressive, passionate music.

Summary: Nothing too different
Comment: The Kinnleys' follow-up CD doesn't do anything much different from the first disc. It delivers nice easy listening country harmonies that are pleasing to the ear and don't make too much impact. I'd say this CD is even a bit weaker than the first, but not much and this is still a good effort. 4 stars even if on the lighter side of 4. The songs are fun, though not impressive, and there's a tendency to kind of sound alike, which fault the first album didn't have so much. Here are songs to note:
She Ain't the Girl for You
That's Gonna Mess You Up - this song has more energy than most, a good one
When the Blues and My Baby Collide - nice to hear women think of the man's mood.
Me Too
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Here
Somebody's Out There Watching

Summary: The Kinleys show no sophomore album jitters...
Comment: I had listened to the debut release from Heather and Jennifer which really delivered what country music should be all about. It took me a while to finally purchase this second album because I couldn't find it in Wal Mart or any other music stores for that matter. I was lucky to find this title at a good price. Anyway, the album gets a good start with the first track, "She Ain't the Girl For You", which is about a friends pity towards a man who tolerates his girlfriend no matter what he puts her through. I believe it was also a single as well. My other favorite songs on this CD includes "I'm In", which was also a single and recieved a fair amount of airplay on the radio, "Me Too" also has a good country vibe to it. Its about how you can relate to someone who has been through heartaches and disappointments in but it isn't a ballad. "Lovers" is good, funny song with lyrics similar to "She Ain't the Girl For You". The lyric in the song "Lovers" I find hilarious is "In a fit of anger at the horseshoe lounge, she took a swing and she knocked that hussy down." Its about a couple who has alot of problems and "ain't it a wonder, why they call them lovers". One song that should've been a single is "Here". Its a good love song its not fast and it ain't slow but sure is great. The album ends on a good note with "Somebody's Watching Over Me" which was featured on the "Touched By An Angel" soundtrack so you know it delivers a good message of inspiration. You will not regret this purchase. As it says in my title, the Kinleys show no sophomore album jitters. They prove that they still knew what to do after the success of their debut album. So I give this 4 stars!

Summary: Delightfully Addictive
Comment: I love this CD! Although many people have never heard of the Kinleys, they soon will. The more I listen to the songs the more I like them. "I'm In" is my all time favorite song and "She Ain't the Girl For You" is in the Top Ten. The girls' voices are a pleasure to hear. I can't wait until the Kinleys come out with their next album. Outstanding CD!!...

Summary: A Definite Keeper!
Comment: Heather and Jennifer Kinley's second album is proof that not all artists are cursed by the "sophomore jinx." This duo will give you goose bumps by their beautiful blends of harmony that only siblings can master. The album starts off rocking with their hit, "She Ain't the Girl for You," then into the catchy "I'm In" and never misses a beat throughout the entire album. As a closing song, they deliver a masterful performance from their 1999 single, "Somebody's Out There Watching." All of these songs could/should be released to country radio. The cd is just that good!

Editorial Reviews:

Sisters Jennifer and Heather Kinley return with a cleverly titled--they're twins--second album that again showcases their canny pop-country blend. Mixing slice-of-life lyrics and dollops of straight-ahead country instrumentation with vocals and backbeats that demonstrate as much familiarity with Bonnie Raitt and the Pretenders as with the Judds, the Kinleys manage to breathe life into material that's occasionally middling at best. The stronger tracks, though, find all the elements coming together to produce small gems such as the dramatic "She Ain't the Girl for You" and the smartly detailed heart song, "When the Blues and My Baby Collide." With the duo's Touched by an Angel contribution, "Somebody's Out There Watching," augmenting the disc's dozen new cuts, II is a safe bet to repeat the gold-record success of their debut. --Rickey Wright
