Free Music Review: Trace Adkins, Songs About Me
Hit: 4 Stars
Great CD. Has made me a Trace Adkins fan. His voice and style grows favorably the more it is heard.Free Music Review: A Very Mixed Bag
Hit: 3 Stars
I like Adkins' voice and his previous CDs have been pretty good. This one, however, is a very mixed bag. The title song, "Songs About Me" has a good lyric and made a good single. "Arlington" is a good song that some will dislike because of their own political prejudices, but an objective listen to the song, sung from the perspective of a slain soldier, ("I'm proud to be on this peaceful piece of property ... I can rest in peace, I'm one of the chosen ones, I made it to Arlington") reveals a terrific lyric.
"Honky Tonk Badonkadonk", a big hit, made for an amusing video but it isn't much of a song for listening purposes. I don't know if it will be released as a single, but "I Wish It Was You" is probably the best song on the CD. The rest of the songs fall into the category of decent filler - nothing terrible but nothing special, either. This CD will neither alienate Trace's fan base, nor expand it much.
If allowed fractional ratings, I'd give this 3 & 1/2 stars
Free Music Review: Shoulda waited for the next Greatest Hits album
Hit: 3 Stars
This was my first Trace Adkins album, and I'm sorry to say that I shoulda just waited for the greatest hits version, cause I really only enjoyed 2 tracks, the popular ones that'll definitely be on a greatest hits, Songs About Me and Honky Tonk Badonkadonk. I had no idea Trace sang so many slow songs, is that true of all his CDs?? If I wanted the slow songs, I'd have gone to another artist known for his beautiful vocals, not someone known for his tough and cool demeanor.Free Music Review: Not too bad but a little sappy
Hit: 2 Stars
Another country album that falls into the trap of being too sappy. I have recently aquired a taste for some country music, but the level of religion in most country music is downright obnoxious. I just have a hard time getting into forced faith in my music. I know that christianity has long been a staple in country music, but it is really becoming stale and lame in the manner that it is being used anymore. That accompanied by the 'by the numbers' love songs are dragging the life out of too any potentially good CD's. Honky Tonk Badonkadonk is a cool song that has some balls to it though.
