Let's get on the same page here. Jo Dee has to have a hit with her new single, "I'm Done," if she hopes to get her album on the shelves of record stores. That's just how it works.

Ok, now on to the single. Well, make no mistake - this is Jo Dee music. And she sounds great. However, I just don't think this is the single that will launch this album. Perhaps I'm wrong - girls are said to love this. And why not? Most women have had an ex hook up with a girl that's, well, loud about the fact that she's with your man. But let's not kid ourselves here. If Jo Dee really wanted to, you know she'd kick that girl's ass. And I think that's for the betterment of the song. Sometimes, though, the song is just fluff ("you and me we had a good thing") but at times is catchy, like in the chorus. The music does its part in keeping your attention, and again, Jo Dee's voice is unlike any others. You won't be asking "who is this?"

I just haven't been able to get into this like "My Give A Damn's Busted." But, being a huge Jo Dee fan, I hope this one can get her career back on the tracks. Hopefully Jo Dee won't end her career on such an ominous tune.

GRADE: B+
HIT or MISS: Somewhere in between..
