Critical reception

[edit]

Allmusic editor Paula Carino wrote, "when he hits his vocal stride, no one is smoother than Case. This 2009 release highlights the singer's sweet high register and ultra-romantic lyrics ("Be That Man"), and the songs are a little more reflective and mature than previous efforts, indicating a real heart and soul behind the voice."[1]
