Reviews
Stand Still, Look Pretty is a compilation of modern country music at its best. Filled with heartfelt songs with a mix of pop and country music merged beautifully into a wonderful album. Every track has a story waiting to be told. A stand-out album where the talents of Michelle Branch and Jessica Harp blends perfectly. --Raine 06:25, 19 February 2007 (PST)
