Some of the greatest love songs of our time can be enjoyed by one of the strongest voices ever to come out of Nashville, or in John Berry’s case, Aiken, South Carolina. Berry’s compilation, entitled I Give My Heart, is a well-produced package with very few flat notes in material, but none in Berry’s vocal performance.

Country Review

Question: How do you know when you’ve made it in country music, and really made a lasting mark? Answer: When a signature song immediately sparks identification and memories in the minds of fans, regardless of demographic or location. That’s when. There’s probably no greater reward for an artist. Need examples? Think of the popular Brooks & Dunn with "Brand New Man". What about Glen Campbell’s Grammy award block-buster, "By The Time I Get To Phoenix"? Garth Brooks claims a spot with "The Dance," and who can forget Billy Ray Cyrus? And what about Clint Black with "Better Man"? Solid tunes, all of them. Just like John Berry’s 1994 hit, "Your Love Amazes Me".

A Valentine Gift From John Berry
If there is a "perfect ten" album that has ever been recorded by any artist, John Berry's I Give My Heart is the one. An album that is a Valentine to his fans, 'Heart'  is eleven wonderfully performed heartfelt romantic tracks. John, I have always said, has one of the finest voices ever brought to Nashville and his soulful sound simply adds magic to the music here. It is clear that this album was, indeed, a labor of love and special to John's own heart. I Give My Heart is an album that I know will be continually played both in my home and vehicle... and I guarantee it will be a favorite of yours as well. Add a pretty red ribbon, too, and it will definitely make an ideal romantic Valentine gift; one great present that is bound to find you and your special love whirling in each other's arms around your living room floor. Do not miss purchasing this album!

Country Stars Online

What sets music icons like Willie, Merle, Johnny and June apart from all the rest isn't just talent. It isn't just a great voice. Nor is it just the ability to write and perform great songs. As diverse as all the artists who sing country music are, the true legends all have one thing in common, they have never sold out to a commercial vision of country music. For many of them, this meant producing their own music, their own way, on their own labels. With the release of I Give My Heart, John Berry follows the lead of some of the biggest names in country music and aptly demonstrates that doing it his way really is the best way for him.

Will You Marry Me

I think I've waited long enough,
Let enough time go by,
To know just what I need in my life.
When I look at you right now,
My heart is telling me why,
You're the only one for me.
An' tonight, if you let me ask you this,
With Heaven as my witness:

Will you marry me?
I wanna be with you for all eternity.
I swear my love for you will always be.
Here, on bended knee,
Baby, I'm asking, please,
Will you marry me?

All that I see in your eyes,
Let me save deep inside,
'Cause I don't wanna lose one moment of you.
Lookin' like the picture in my dreams,
One that I see comin' true.
'Cause you're dreamin' the same dream I do.
Please let me ask you this,
All of Heaven as my witness:

Will you marry me?
I wanna be with you for all eternity.
I swear my love for you will always be.
Here, on bended knee,
Baby, I'm asking, please,
Will you marry me?

You're the only thing I've ever been this sure of.
More than anything I've ever wanted before.

Will you marry me?
I wanna be with you for all eternity.
I swear my love for you will always be.
Here, on bended knee,
Baby, I'm asking, please,
Will you marry me?
Will you marry me?

Oh.
(Will you marry me?)
Will you marry me?
(I wanna be with you for all eternity.)
Be with you.
(I swear my,) love for you will always be.
Right here, on bended knee,
Oh, baby, I'm asking, please,
Will you marry me?

I Give My Heart

Before you call my name
I will be there by your side
When your standing at the rivers edge
I will be the bridge you find
If you said,"Meet me now beyond the stars"
I'd pack my bags and go that far
With the street that only love commands
I give my heart

Keep it with you if you have to go
It will see you safely home
Wrap it 'round you like your favorite coat
When your called out in a storm
If you loose faith in who you are
With the street that only love commands
I give my heart

When all that's left of me
All the words in this song
I know this love will carry on
With the street that only love commands
I give my heart
