Keith Urban, “You Look Good In My Shirt”

May 29, 2008 Leeann Ward 18

In an unconventional move, Keith Urban has chosen to release a song from his second album, Golden Road, rather than a new song from an upcoming album. While people could easily go back and listen

Randy Houser, “Anything Goes”

May 25, 2008 Kevin John Coyne 9

Well, this is just awesome. He sounds like a young Ronnie Dunn, it’s a classic drinkin’ ’cause my woman left me song, and the hook is so obvious that it’s amazing it hasn’t already been

Review: Chris Young, “Voices”

May 25, 2008 Kevin John Coyne 13

A fittingly respectful and appreciative look back at the positive role models that have shaped his life. I’m not crazy about the conceit of the chorus, “I hear voices all the time”, which plays off

Ashley Gearing, “Out the Window”

May 25, 2008 Kevin John Coyne 1

Gearing had a chart hit way back in 2003, and is a contender again this year now that she’s resurfaced on Curb Records. “Out the Window” is one of those “young girl throws caution to

Kellie Pickler, “Don’t You Know You’re Beautiful”

May 24, 2008 Kevin John Coyne 15

Pickler debuted this single on last week’s ACM awards to a great response, and no wonder. She was saddled with quite a bit of disposable material on her debut album, but “Don’t You Know You’re

May 24, 2008 Kevin John Coyne 14

Sugarland is back with the lead single from Love On the Inside, which they debuted on the ACM awards earlier this week. It’s a laid back song with Nettles not pushing the twang as much

Eddy Arnold, “To Life”

May 13, 2008 Kevin John Coyne 7

A heartbreakingly beautiful toast to life, given by a man humbled by the blessings he’s been given over the years. “Life,” he sings, “you served your finest wine. I drank it down to find my

Taylor Swift, “Should’ve Said No”

May 13, 2008 Kevin John Coyne 13

This is very well-written. It’s to Swift’s credit that this song that she penned herself could be credibly sung by a woman twice her age but is still relevant to the female teen demographic that

Marcel, “I Love This Song”

May 13, 2008 Kevin John Coyne 12

Full disclosure: I’m a big Marcel fan. I say this because it’s pretty hard to make an clear, rational case for his music in a review. I just like it. It makes me smile. It

Ashton Shepherd, “Sounds So Good”

May 11, 2008 Leeann Ward 9

When I first heard the opening notes of Ashton Shepherd’s debut single, “Takin’ Off This Pain”, I was taken aback by the sharp and twangy voice that I was hearing. Her unique voice combined with
