The Ones We Never Knew is the debut album of American country music artist Holly Williams. It was released on October 5, 2004 by Universal South Records. Its only single, "Sometimes", failed to chart, although it was made into a music video. Williams co-produced the album and wrote all twelve of its songs.
Critical reception
Giving the album three-and-a-half stars out of five, Stephen Thomas Erlewine of Allmusic called it "a classy, tasteful album", saying that the album showed Williams' songwriting ambition, but could have used more variances in tempo.
