"My Front Porch Looking In" was nominated for the 2004 Grammy Award for Best Country Performance By A Duo Or Group With Vocal.

In the realm of country music, self-contained groups have never been the most common denizens of the charts, the format being much more sympathetic to solo artists and duos. However, like Alabama, Sawyer Brown, and a handful others, Lonestar has persevered to become one of the most successful acts on the country scene. This disc, a collection of their most popular songs, stands as a monument to that success. It's filled to the brim with tightly arranged, expertly performed tunes that mix country, pop, and rock while maintaining just the right amount of twang. Lonestar's not afraid of a little bar-room boogie, as on "You Walked In," or a bit of post-Eagles country pop ("Everything's Changed"). However, they're also proficient in the power-ballad area, as exemplified on picture-perfect radio bait like "Amazed," "I'm Already There" (which in another era could have been an Air Supply hit), and the previously unreleased, spiritually oriented "I Pray."
