I love it. It's different and exciting and something I can find new appreciation for no matter how long I've had it. The only song I don't like is Janie because the title is a ripoff of the Kenny Rogers song "Ruby, Don't Take Your Love to Town" so the chorus ruins what is otherwise an wonderfully written song. The verses are so personal I'm surprised Jon even released it, but the title... he pulled it out of the toilet he was sitting on while writing.

It's Just Me has my favorite guitar solo--I love the distorted sound the over-the-phone recording made. I love the introspection of the songs and that most of them were written without co-writers so you get a real feeling for who JON is and what he has to say on his own. There's a lot of heart and soul on this CD and it makes me look forward to another JBJ solo project.
