Reba is so talented, but the song is so far beneath her. It’s so far beneath any realistic human to blame her actions or lack thereof on someone else despite her gender… so, she’s a girl and she can’t get up in the morning and go drink beer with the boys? … really? … what country does she live in? … what level of pitiful does the whole song live in? … I always thought of her as a woman, strong and smart, guess I gave her way to much credit or else I should really listen to her song and give women less credit than I do…. feeling sorry for yourself because of your genitalia (or lack thereof) will get you nowhere with rational people. D- at best for this song, and that’s only because she could make puke sound good.
I love you Girl … but you have to make smarter choices with your music …

It’s decent. I don’t care much for the original and Reba’s version is on the same level in my mind. Of all the songs out there, why did she pick this one?

If this is really the worst thing you’ve ever heard, then you’re in pretty darn good shape. Just saying.

Worst crap I have ever heard coming out of my speakers. Reba, go away! You’ve been around way too long and this garbage proves it.

Thank you. I thought it was just me who was cringing on the sound of “Boy”. Otherwise I think it’s a decent single, there’s just that one note that makes me cringe.

I don’t see anything wrong with her covering this song and I don’t have any problem with her saying “Twitter” either. I’d much rather her cover this song than Carrie/Kelly/Taylor/etc. Although I do personally think Faith Hill would have given a better vocal performance to this song. Just my humble opinion however.

I think this new album is pretty solid, much better than her last 3, that’s for sure.
