It’s a tad too long, but solid enough to hold the interest to the end. Certainly worth an immediate playlist add. The boys have huge cultural appeal and their music is distinctive and satisfying. Still, four minutes is a lot of attention-time for any record to ask for or expect to hold. We’ll see.
Ok, the guy is gone and it’s just Jennifer now, no more duo. Good with that. I got all disappointed with Sugarland, see. Like a busted love affair. That last album was such a let down. It was like she ran off to be with some other guy, some con-man, and I knew he was … Read more
Damn, these wimmin keep on making me feel good’n amazed. There’s probably four hit songs on here new album. I was all prepared not to like it, had strains of Alan Jackson’s “Gone Country” floatin’ in the head when I read that’s what she was gonna do. Should’a realized right off that if any Pop … Read more
Clearly the most unique song on an album with some truly great ones. The use of the auto-tune is just perfect.

Well, it’s self-referential song again, but I guess it’ll be okay one more time. He’s so big, people are interested in hearing what he’s thinking. People Mag stuff. It does feel like a pretty good hum-hook.
Now, finally, an absolutely excellent new album by some boys for a change. (see previous chat about woman-domination in the field so far this year). The album has six tracks that I could hear as solid radio singles. I pick this one as the lead because it is what it wants to be; that is: … Read more
One of my favorite things in the world is a song with ‘atmosphere’. “Seminole Wind” by John Anderson had it. (example #2..you fill in yours). This album cut has it. A most mesmerizing atmosphere.
With all it’s nah-nah-nah-nah, I was a bit put off the first time i heard it. Dittyish. Following listens, it got to me. The point of view he expresses is a good one. Egalitarian. It comes in at nice 3:15, so doesn’t wear out it’s welcome.
