Free Music Notes for FlyFree Music Review: Pretty awesome....for country music Hit: 5 Stars
Most of you who are debating whether or not to get this album, or their previous album for that matter are probably thinking..."well I don't know, I'm not a fan of country music and the majority of the people writing these reviews are from southern states". Well here's a surprise for you.....I'm from Hawaii, where there ISN'T a country music scene, and I absolutely love the album and the artists. I had the privilege of seeing the Dixie Chicks live at Lilith Fair and I was completely floored. They were just so incredible and fun! While they are country artists, they're so different from the traditional ones I've been exposed to, in that they are so fresh, cool, and fun. They seriously are just amazing. So if you're having doubts, take it from a non-country listener: they are worth taking a chance on....you won't be dissapointed.
Free Music Review: Dixie Chicks Rock! Hit: 5 Stars
Sophomore albums usually come with a little letdown, because in most cases the first album is so good it can't be duplicated. Duplication definitely isn't the case with FLY and FLY is the best album to debut this year. The Dixie Chicks brought life back into country music with their wild ways and they work so well together. One quote from their tour manager sums it up. "They are SUCH girls. They are their audience. They like to shop, do makeup together...it's like a f---in' slumber party on the bus. I'll go on and they've got their pajamas and their blankets and some girlie movie going--it's the cutest thing." About "Goodbye Earl"...that is such a funny song. And the instrumentation in "Sin Wagon" is amazing. :) Emily rocks with that banjo. Go get FLY, I promise you won't be disappointed.
Free Music Review: I hated country...now I love the Dixie Chicks! Hit: 5 Stars
This is my new favorite CD! I borrowed my friends copy of Wide Open Spaces after I saw them on 60 minutes or something because I loved thier personalities and they seemed like cool people. I love Wide Open Spaces, but I went out and bought FLY after seeing thier concert on NBC. FLY hasn't left my CD player in 3 weeks. I love it! Natalie has an incredible voice, Martie is the best fiddie player I've ever heard, and Emily's awesome on banjo and slide guitar. This album is so much fun...It ROCKS! I can't pick my favorite songs, because I love it all. And I can't really say that about alot of CD's I've bought. But this one is worth it! My only regret is that I wasn't a fan yet and I didn't get to see them when they came here in June. I would've slept out for a week to get some front row seats. -Liz :)
Free Music Review: Chicks Rule Hit: 5 Stars
Discovered the girls when I went through ... best of 2000. Love the fiddle, the voices and the banjo. I am not a big fan of country but these girls have truly opened my eyes. When I first listened to the album, Natalie's voice stood out the most, but as you listen again and again it's the instruments that make you sit in awe. I play the violin so I just love the fiddle being played in souch a soulful and skillful way. Cold Day in July was my original favourite but now it is Cowboy Take Me Away, If I fall, Heartbreak Town, and Hello Mr Heartache. There are no words that express how much I love the music by these girls. I prefer it to the younger Wide Open Spaces - it is more mature and more polished and I think it demonstrates the extent of the skill these women have - I am now a Chick convert, where are the concert tickets?
Free Music Review: Chicks Rock Hit: 5 Stars
I bought this CD after hearing "Cowboy Take Me Away" and immediately loved the chicks style. After buying Fly, I went out and bought their debut, Wide Open Spaces. The more I listen, the more I appreciate the intricacies of their music. When I learned the chicks played most of their own instruments, I was absolutely blown away! "Sin Wagon" and "Goodbye Earl" are upbeat and kind of dark at the same time. They are fast paced, toe-tapping, jaw-dropping tunes. Also very cool are "Ready to Run", "Cold Day in July", "Hello Mr. Heartache." This cd runs the gamut of emotions from peppy and fun, to hurt, to love, and back again. I hate to use the phrase "Girl Power", but that is what comes to mind when I think of the Dixie Chicks. Fly is a must own!
