Snippet Reviews

"My Heart Can't Tell You No" Sara Evans
Musically great, vocally amazing, and a fine lyric, no the strongest but gets the job done.
Grade: B

"You and Tequila" Kenny Chesney
Matraca Berg's amazing pen, a sparse arrangement and  a great delivery make this not only a years highlight but career highlight for Chesney
Grade: A

"I Love You This Big" Scotty McCreery
Nice neotraditional production and a clear vocal make this listenable, but the lyrics lack and make the song just that, listenable.
Grade: C-

"Like My Mother Does" Lauren Alaina
A sweet, believable lyric matched with one of the finest young vocalists in music make this song more than just another Idol song, but rather a song for radio to play and enjoy. The one limitation: the production don't let her vocals shine as much as they can.
Grade: B+

Kenny Goes 3D

Kenny Chesney the four time CMA Entertainer of the Year has announced that he won't be touring next year but he will be doing a different form of concert. Instead of touring he will be releasing a 3D concert movie to be released in April of next year. The movie was filmed at four different concerts and in one separate recording time. As we get closer to the release I will remind you guys with another post.
