| So the powers that be in the music industry see this cute little girl that defies her age with her skills at the guitar, pluck her from relative obscurity, dress her up, produce a bunch of songs for/with her, and package her with an MTV series deal. Usually this is the making of tripe, but this album struck a nerve with me. Yeah, it's a tad bit overproduced, and it won't win any awards for being original, but THIS IS ONE OF MY MOST PLAYED ALBUMS IN THE LAST TEN YEARS!!!!! Seriously. SERIOUSLY. The songs are just fantastic, even if they're a bit undersung. It's an utter tragedy that the record company didn't let her come into her own and mature as an artist and vocalist. Cheyenne is a well of untapped potential that's being squandered as she sings backup vocals for Gloriana. |

 Very decent solo debut by future Gloriana member...

Bottom line...very likeable and the songs are decently-written, hard-edged girl powerpop with a hint of country. Makes sense, as the songs are all co-written by Cheyenne with a series of heavy-hitters like Idol judge Kara DioGuardi and her partner Greg Wells, Our Lady Peace singer Raine Maida and his wife, singer/songwriter Chantal Kreviazuk, as well as Nashville bigwig John Rich and his partner Vicky McGeehee...interesting...plus her song "These Four Walls" was covered by Miley Cyrus on her solo "debut" "Breakout"...and it shows that Sony expected big things from her from this record, and it did OK, but it's really now viewed as a launching pad, as...
Now, she is one fourth of Nashville up-and-comers Gloriana, who recently opened for Taylor Swift's big "Fearless" tour...they're like Little Big Town but more youthful and more commercial...makes sense...they are being groomed for success and have a big single in "Wild At Heart"...Matchbox Twenty producer Matt Serletic produced their debut and it's on his new Emblem label through Reprise/Warner Bros Nashville.
I just wonder if Cheyenne got dropped from her solo deal so she could sign this new deal with Gloriana on Warners, or if she's still signed for solo records. Also, I wonder if people will be able to connect the dots and put 2 and 2 together, and rememeber Cheyenne from this very good solo record. I honestly wondered what happened to her, if she will be releasing more records, as I liked this one...then I hear about Gloriana...they befriended me on Myspace months before they released their debut...maybe before they had a deal as a group...no idea Cheyenne was in the band...until I read People's review of the record, and they mentioned her name, and it caught me off-guard, and I saw the pictures, and I was like, that IS her!!!
I'll be getting Gloriana's record this week...gotta keep up the Cheyenne collection. |

She may not be the strongest singer, but this is an incredible debut!

| She does not have a Mariah Carey voice at all, but this is a very strong debut. Any of the first eight songs on the album could easily be singles. For those who say she is just another annoying bubble-gum pop singer, think again, her music is very original. It is actually much more of a rock album then a pop album, and filled with great guitar playing. I think her voice sounds great on the album, but I will agree that often when she performs live it sounds rough and sometimes strained. But in a way it makes her voice kind of unique. Never the less, her guitar playing is great and so are her songwriting skills. In order, the standout tracks are: THE DAY HAS COME, One Original Thing, I Want To, Hanging On, Hello Goodbye, Four Walls and Breaking Your Heart..Her rock sound is very appealing and it is great that all the young girls who follow her can be exposed to this type of music. Her MTV reality show was also a very good and intersting show for aspiring musicians and she did not come off like a know-at-all in the least. The show also helped her album become a success, despite the rumors that it flopped, the album charted at a very respectable #15 on the Billboard 200. Cheyenne's album is very good and look foward to see how her voice and styles develop on her next album. Even though it is slightly bizare that Cheyenne was able to win "America's Most Talented Kid," against great singers such as JoJo and Diana DeGarmo, I thinks she is very talented and has a promising career ahead of her. |

When you have a name like Cheyenne Kimball, you have to get into the entertainment business. I first heard of her last year when I caught her video for "Hanging On" on MTV Hits. I thought that maybe she was trying to give Aly & AJ a run for their money, but with The Day Has Come, she proves that she's a more than adequate artist in her own right.
While most of the songs sound decent enough separately, the reason why I gave the album three stars is because eight of the twelve songs on here (excluding the intro) are about the same thing: heartbreak; and what's more, it's the last eight songs on the album. I mean, selections like "Mr. Beautiful", "Everything to Lose" and "Four Walls" aren't bad, but they really make things monotonous. Also, as a few other reviewers said, Cheyenne doesn't exactly have the strongest set of pipes (see the title track).
Speaking of that, things aren't a whole lot better when she DOESN'T talk about breakups either; case in point: I don't think "I Want to" is as great as other people do. It's admirable that Cheyenne co-wrote every song on here and performed all the lead acoustic guitar parts at her age, but there's too much redundancy in the subject matter, so for her next album, she should follow track 4 and create one original thing.
