Comments on: Kacey Musgraves — “Merry Go ‘Round” http://www.engine145.com/kacey-musgraves-merry-go-round/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=kacey-musgraves-merry-go-round A Roots Music Publication Fri, 24 May 2013 18:01:02 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.4.2 By: BRUCE http://www.engine145.com/kacey-musgraves-merry-go-round/#comment-116431 BRUCE Mon, 11 Feb 2013 03:25:34 +0000 http://www.engine145.com/?p=20646#comment-116431 There are two reasons why this song appeals to me. Number one is I simply like it for a variety of personal taste reasons. In my prism that's all that matters. Number two is I can actually hear the artist sing and the music accompanies the voice instead of the other way around (for a change). Juli mentioned about "Truck Yeah". Couldn't agree more. I have listened to Chris Stapleton and his wife Morgane Stapleton sing "Amanda" at the ASCAP Awards. This can be found on YouTube. All is right for today in country music.

Simple, pretty music that compliments the well written, but depressing lyrics without being the center of attention. Most music now is usually a loud beat and distractingly catchy melody with repetitive, shallow, meaninglessly cheesy lyrics. This is a true country song to me! LOVE this song.

Great lyrics. It's encouraging that she's getting some radio play. We're so starved for real talent and real country music. I've just recently found sites such as this one and I'm learning alot of talented artists and I'm thankful for the effort! Good pick. Great lyrics.

Kacey released a couple of western swing/cowgirl yodel albums in her early and mid teens and a self titled country album back in 2007. Her voice is much stronger and more self-assured theses days and her vocals on the Josh Abbott duet "Oh Tonight" really caught a lot or people's attention. I do like this new single but get the feeling Kacey is trying to emulate her pal Miranda Lambert's vocal style just a wee bit too much. Still I give it a solid thumbs up, which means Top 40 AirHead Country Radio will likely ignore it. They already have one Miranda Lambert and that's enough for their restricted playlists.

I'm pleased to see that it seems to be off to a solid start at radio. This is exactly what the country market needs right now - It really shows just how cheated today's country radio listeners are.
