O'Neal exploded onto the music scene in 2000 with the release of her first album, Shiver on Mercury Records. The first single, "There Is No Arizona" went to #1 on the charts and set a high standard for herself as both singer and songwriter. Her second release, the self-penned "When I Think About Angels" also went to #1 securing her spot as one of the industry's most sought after performers. Both titles earned her Grammy nominations as a songwriter for Country Song of the Year. In addition, "Arizona" brought a third Grammy nod for Best Female Country Vocal Performance. The Academy of Country Music named her the Top New Female Vocalist; Radio & Records awarded her with the #1 Most Valuable Female Country Artist and #1 Most Valuable New Country Artist. She has also taken honors for Billboard's Top New Country Artist and Gavin's Top Country Artist.
This is a really good song - and man, does she still have some vocals! Pretty much rocks... I expected nothing less actually.
