Congratulations to Rebecca, our first winner of an autographed Reba McEntire All The Women I Am CD!

Her name was randomly drawn this morning from all the comments left on our post last week. Thank you to everyone for the amazing comments left for Reba. We’re going to forward all of your comments to our contact at her record label, and hopefully, she’ll see them all. If you’re on Twitter, we’d appreciate it if you’d also forward this post with all the comments to @Reba as well. Here was Rebecca’s comment for Reba:

“I first heard Reba when I was 5 yrs. old. My mom, grandparents, and I were listening to the radio when Reba’s “Whoever’s In New England” came on. I stood there staring at the radio the whole song. I’d never heard such a lovely voice. I got all excited, exclaiming, “Who was that!?” and was told it was Reba McEntire. It was that moment when I fell in love with her voice.

Through the yrs. her music has been my refuge in times when I’ve had a bad day or life was getting too rough. I’ve been through a lot in my life and it’s always been Reba’s music that I’ve gone to for comfort.

The more I listened to Reba’s music and watched her on interviews and even read her biography, the more I liked her. She is this hard working, loving, compassionate, strong person. Someone I have always looked up to and admired. Someone I’ve always wanted to be like.

Her music has always been my refuge. I can listen to her sing and it’s like all my troubles seem to melt away as I listen to her angelic voice. And, with her words of wisdom and encouragement, I’ve been lifted up and given the courage and strength to go on even when all I felt like doing was giving up.

There was a time when for yrs. almost all I listened to was Reba. I just couldn’t get enough of that angelic voice of hers and those songs that touch your heart and at much needed times ones that give you that boost to go on.

She even kind of felt like a friend at a time growing up when I didn’t really have many true friends. So, it had just always been a dream of mine to meet her. To thank her for all of the wonderful, encouraging, inspiring music she puts out there and for just being the wonderful, caring person she is. But, that has yet to happen and I’m just hoping someday it will. For now, I’d just be happy with getting her autograph.”

P.S. Don’t fret if you didn’t win. There are still two more chances to win. We’ll announce the details for the 2nd CD this afternoon. But, here’s a hint. You need a Twitter account, and you must be following us to win! We’re @TodaysCountry on Twitter. Stay tuned for details…
