I am a fan (and you should be too), because...well because Chris and the band are amazing! This is the first CD EVER (and I own a lot of music), that I loved every single last song on it. Normally you hear a song, you like it, then you like it enough to buy the CD and hope theres at least a few more on it that are going to make what you paid for it worth it. Usually there are always at least 2 to 3 songs that are just OK, not bad, not great, but you dont care for them for whatever reason. I bought my Daughtry CD, and it went something like this...song 1, already love it, it's why I bought it. Then the next, dang two for two. Holy cow, three for three...all the way to the 12th song, 12 of 12 that just completely rocked! That alone is not something easy to achieve and this is the first CD thats ever done that for me. The music itself (what amazing musicians), the lyrics, the vocals, the overall sound itself, the only word to describe it is "perfection". I've played my CD at least a 100 times, I know all the words and I relate to these songs in so many ways and on so many levels. Music that moves you, lyrics that touch you and a band that has the ability to share a part of themselves with you and leave a lasting imprint on your soul... THAT IS DAUGHTRY! Simply AMAZING!!!
