"Something Worth Leaving Behind" was nominated for the 2003 Grammy Awards for Best Female Country Vocal Performance.
Were it not for the presence of a number of top-flight Nashville session musicians on SOMETHING WORTH LEAVING BEHIND, very few people would be tempted to call it a country record, even by contemporary standards. In fact, this offering from Lee Ann Womack is closer in spirit to the pop-rock of Sheryl Crow or post-crossover Shelby Lynne. You can tell there's more than country cookie-cutter production at work when you hear the subtly grooving R&B of "When You Gonna Run to Me" or when you notice the name-checking of Andy Warhol and Mozart in the title track that opens the album. In fact, the tracks that bear the most traditional flavor are penned by two of Nashville's hippest singer-songwriters, Julie Miller and Bruce Robison. Ultimately, you should toss all preconceptions about contemporary country out the door when encountering SOMETHING WORTH LEAVING BEHIND.
