By capturing in song moments from life and presenting them
in a way that makes them universal, Mary Chapin Carpenter
has ascended to the heights of popularity in country music.
An Ivy League graduate who refuses to don the customary
country-and western attire, Carpenter may be an unlikely
candidate for queen of country, but with her five
critically acclaimed, genre-blurring albums and several hit
singles, she has picked up five Grammy awards, two best
female vocalist awards from the Country Music Association,
and a best female vocalist honor from the Academy of
Country Music.
A combination of country, folk, rock, and blues,
Carpenter's music defies easy categorization. The singer
herself has been compared to other indefinable artists such
as Rosanne Cash, Nanci More...

------ About the song 10,000 Miles performed by Mary Chapin Carpenter
many of us have traveled 10000 miles... I mean in many many ways.. ups and downs.. wins, loses, happiness,sadness, this song touches my heart and makes me think about our real home, small things in life we don't love.. I just sit myself watch the movie and listen to this heavenly message... it brings peace... I am not bigger than the next man... I really pray for blessings over you... 10000 miles... keep your head up!

------ About the song Only A Dream performed by Mary Chapin Carpenter
I have loved this song since I was five years old and sitting in the backseat of our old green van, listening to Mary Chapin Carpenter on the tape deck and crying my eyes out. Even at such a young age I understood the depth of this song, and cried every time I would listen to it. My big sister is the most important person in my world and listening to "Only a Dream" always would remind me of that. What a touching, beautiful, well-written piece of art. What a singer!

------ About the song Down At The Twist And Shout performed by Mary Chapin Carpenter
Maybe I was a Cajun in a previous life but every time I hear this song, I have to turn the volume up and sing along (at least the words I know). There's something about the music coming from a squeezebox mixed together with some muddled French that pairs together so well. Mary Chapin Carpenter was born to sing this song. It's #4 on my personal list of favorite songs.

------ About the song I Am A Town performed by Mary Chapin Carpenter
I remember trips to visit the Grandparents in Missouri back in the late 60s and early 70s and this song brings up all those memories. I have always loved this song and the imagery that results from the memories.

------ About the song Only A Dream performed by Mary Chapin Carpenter
This song brings back such vivid memories of my childhood. As I listen to this, my mind drifts back to that time-- as the twilight approaches and the sun is going down my parents sit together on the slanted patio of our small cape cod home, listening to Mary Chapin Carpenter, Billy Joel, and James Taylor. My sister and I run through the sprinkler carelessly next to the sidewalk. Up the road to the west the sun is setting in a punch colored sky. Even at nine, I remembered thinking to myself that I would treasure that moment forever. I always have.

------ About the song 10,000 Miles performed by Mary Chapin Carpenter
This is, without a doubt, my favorite Mary Chapin Carpenter song of all time. It pairs so well with the movie (in which it was featured) "Fly Away Home"... which touches my heart every time I see it.
Oh what traveling memories! | Reviewer: Ken Ferencz
------ About the song I Am A Town performed by Mary Chapin Carpenter
I can sure remember back in the 1950's in the car
with my parents and my sister on many vacations going to Florida from New Jersey before turnpikes and interstates seeing all the road signs trucks on cinder blocks and so on....this song just brings back so much good memories..don't forget "Burma Shave"

------ About the song This Is Love performed by Mary Chapin Carpenter
This is a great song!!! MCM put a lot of love into this song. The song wraps around your emotions...It would make a great wedding song.
I love 'House of Cards' because I have lived 'House of Cards.'
"I grew up in a town like this
We knew the names of every street
On the surface it looked so safe
But it was perilous underneath
That's the place you shoved your doubts
And hid your ugly scars
God forbid if word got out
About your house of cards."
I grew up in a small town in New England, where everyone was expected to know their 'place' and keep to it, even in this day and age. A great many people think growing up in New England must be like living in a Norman Rockwell painting; it never stops to bother to occur to them why Steven King sets so many of his novels in ... small towns in New England.
I live in Denver, CO now. I like it a LOT better. I'm one among millions here, nobody knows who I am, and they wouldn't care if they did.

Underrated and overlooked Gem | Reviewer: Anonymous
------ About the album A Place In The World performed by Mary Chapin Carpenter
There is a depth to the rhythm of these songs that outshine even some of her best previous work. On this record she takes off in a new direction lyrically. Not trying to write hit songs. just writing for herself here. (Later albums continue in this lyrical direction)My favorite cuts are Naked To The Eye and the title cut, which is another "last song on the albun" gem that defies gravity and soars in its understated elegance and simplicity.It is worth the cost of the entire cd in itself. Go find your Place In The World.
This song evokes so many feelings, and there are truths that are good to acknowledge about love and life. The song is well crafted and sung well by Mary of course. It is very complete in it's text and sentiment. It is a song I enjoy singing very much.
