Okay, I’ll go first! I’ve always been a fan of Sara Evans, so it’s tough to pick a favorite song, but I’ll go with “A Real Fine Place to Start.” While her ballads and mid-tempos are great, there’s something about “Real Fine Place” that makes it stand out. The energy is just infectious, the melody is super catchy, and the production is very tasteful and fits the song perfectly. It’s a shame that this isn’t played much on the radio anymore, because I’d really like to hear more of it!

My favorite Sara Evens song is “Stronger” because it’s part of the Country Strong soundtrack which is an amazing collection of music, because the song itself has an awesome message, it’s beautiful and it has helped two of my friends to grow stronger after breakups.

whats not to love?, Sara and I have so much in common, her broken marriage and mine were for the same reasons, and we thought when we got married it was forever,but forever wasn’t that long.
My favorite songs are many, but the ones that I really love the most are equally my favorite of hers.
Is “I could not ask for more and Niagara….I can just get lost in these songs. I hope she is happy these days …and whether I get her Cd or not. I will always love that sweet voice and heart felt songs.

I have to say out of all the songs that Sara has, mine has to be “A Little Bit Stronger”. I relate to it because when I broke up with my partner a few months ago, it felt like I was living the song. Especially the part about “Riding in the car to work and I’m trying to ignore the hurt
So I turned on the radio, stupid song made me think of you
I listened to it for minute but I changed it”. It really hit me hard. Then about a month ago my friend passed away, and the song took on a whole new meaning. This song will always have a special place in my heart.
This song proves that great country songs can have a deep meaning, vivid imagery, and still have a good hook (and be radio friendly).

I’ll have to go with one of her biggest hits “Suds In The Bucket”. It’s a fun song that tells a fun story. Sure it may be a bit of country fluff, but the way Sara sings the song – it doesn’t just sound like fluff. She really gets into the song. The bottom line: I like it because I like it.

Three Chords and the Truth. It’s a great classical country sounding story song with a great vocal performance by Sara. I’m all for more songs referencing Harlan Howard.

My favorite Sara Evans song is an album track called Roll Me Back In Time. I just like that it is a story song and her vocals display conviction. Another of my favorite artists, Sheryl Crow, wrote this song.

My favorite Sara Evans song…hmm…there’s so many good ones to choose from. I’d have to say Suds in the Bucket, just because it’s so darn catchy!! Real Fine Place to Start is a close second.

My favorite Sara Evans song is “Suds in the Bucket”. You spend a good portion of your life loving and cherishing your children and it really never occurs to you that through all the madness and craziness and downright fun, it will come to such a halting stop for you. Yeah,yeah, we know they are going to grow up and fall in love and off they will go. Just try and explain it to my heart. That song will always have a place in my heart.

I really like the “character” that Sara shows. She comes across as a good person. I like “born to fly” and its tie-in to the Wizard of Oz in the video.
