I have noticed a lot of new country singles out there. Some, in my educated opinion, are fantastic. Some are okay, and some are just plain bad--I won't post those.
My new favorite song is Zac Brown Band's duet with Alan Jackson called "As She's Walking Away." When I first heard this song, I knew it was Zac Brown--it could be no one else, but I didn't know it was Alan Jackson until later. I truly love this song--Zac Brown has truly come into himself in this CD. I plan to review the entire album
at some point, but not tonight.
And there is also a new Taylor Swift song called "Mine" from her upcoming album
. I have to admit that when I first heard this song, I was not too impressed with it. As I have continued to listen, there are a few lines that have spoken to me--especially the bridge section--the part beginning with 2:30 A.M. You'll see it. It will not ever be as good as her other songs "Love Story" and "You Belong With Me," but it is good.Darius Rucker of Hootie and the Blowfish fame is also releasing his second country album
. I liked this song from the beginning. He is such a nice guy, and he seems so approachable. See what you think of his "Come Back Song."Now to the mediocre. Okay, I love Reba McEntire--I saw her in concert earlier this year. I loved it. But she has released a song that is growing on me, but it is just not her normal kind, I don't think it does her justice. Here's her "Turn on the Radio."
And finally, Easton Corbin of "A Little More Country Than That" has released "Roll With It." I have his album
, and there are much better songs on it than that. Here's a live version of it since there is no studio video yet.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6a-SvJgwRvE
Sorry, it won't let me embed it. Share your thoughts! And share your new music, too!
