How You Live

by Jared JohnsonWhen the group's streak of 26 consecutive number-ones hits ended with 2004's "I Choose You," the notable women's quartet didn't make major revisions to their sound. They did, however, embellish their harmonic adult contemporary with elements of country pop. The twangy "Any Way" and title track bring to mind the Dixie Chicks or Martina McBride. The group once again benefited from contributions by some of contemporary Christian music's most seasoned songwriters, including Nichole Nordeman, Jason Ingram, and Scott Krippayne. Laced together with the group's trademark vocals, How You Live shows the ladies securely and steadfastly doing what they do best.
