Editorial Review:
As a singer who has parlayed boyish charm and modest talent into a multiplatinum career, Tim McGraw seems like the guy next door who got incredibly lucky--and not just with his marriage to Faith Hill. This easy-listening collection features a generous 14 cuts, heavy on power ballads ("You Get Used to Somebody," "Take Me Away from Here," "Why We Said Goodbye") with soaring choruses and frothy sentiments, but light on soulful substance. For variety, McGraw proves a dead-on Springsteen mimic with "Forget About You," dubiously links himself to Hank Williams and Elvis with "Things Change," and crosses over toward Ricky Martin territory on the Spanish-tinged "Let Me Love You." Hill joins hubby on background vocals for the comparatively subtle "Angry All the Time." --Don McLeese
Set This Circus Down Reviews:
Not One of My Favorite Tim McGraw CDs 
2008-07-09 - As a Tim McGraw fan, I try to love all of his music but this is one of my least favorite CDs by McGraw. Ironically, I really love the first two songs on this CD, "Cowboy in Me" and "Telluride"; "Cowboy in Me" has become one of my all-time favorite songs. Nevertheless, after those two songs, the rest of "Set This Circus Down" was mediocre at best - I am not a fan of the songs after track #2. After "Telluride", the songs here sound repeatative and generic; like anyone could have sung them. And there is a very obvious shift in the sound on "Set This Circus Down" compared to some of of McGraw's earlier work, which may bother people.
Get this CD if you are a McGraw fan; if not, you may want to skip this one.
Wow!!! 
2007-09-06 - Wow what a wonderful CD. One of my friends gave this to me shortly before my faïence and I broke up. Every song on here spoke to me and I cried freely through most of it. Especially "You get used to somebody", and "Why we said goodbye". That one line "I just had to call you, I had to hear your voice; and tell you still love you, we still have a choice". And "Everything I do leads me back to you". So perfectly described how I felt. Tim has such feeling and emotion in his music. I just have fallen in love with it and can't really put into words how it makes me feel. It's nice to have music that speak directly to my soul. This is just a wonderful CD and the first I've ever owned where I loved EVERY song on it. Most of the time I'll buy a CD for 3, maybe 4 songs. This one I don't have to push the next button ever!! Thank you Mr. McGraw.
Great Album
2007-04-02 - The songs on this album are melodic and I like the stories that they tell. I like this particular album better than most of Tim's other albums.
A SUPERSTAR WHO IS GOOD!
2006-04-26 - I was a little hesitant to buy an album by a big star. But, this cd is great! All tracks are good. My best is FORGET ABOUT US and the title song. Great sound and production. This would interest country, pop, folk, and rock fans. A CAN'T MISS!
BEST TIM MCGRAW ALBUM!
2005-06-19 - This is Tim McGraw's BEST album yet. I love "Angel Boy", "Cowboy In Me", "Telluride" (since I ski there), "Grown Men Don't Cry" and "Angry all the Time". Of course all the songs are AMAZING, but those are the best. There is not one song on this album that I skip over, which I do A LOT when I listen to other CDs. If you are looking to purchase a Tim McGraw album get this one. Trust me, I have every Tim McGraw album.
