I believe that’s JOE Walsh, not Jim. :D

I’ve always enjoyed his voice myself, and typically enjoyed the songs he has sung lead on.

I like the idea for this song. I enjoy how they executed it, but I also enjoy the idea of someone new to a town seeing it in such a different light. Growing up in Nashville, it’s always been interesting seeing people move here and be really excited.

I can’t even listen to this song. The plodding beat and pounding drums, the bombastic production, the droning vocals, this song truly has it all, well everything that makes AirHead Country so mediocre. This track could have great lyrics and I wouldn’t even care as the sonic package they are wrapped in is so unappealing. I don’t expect Top 40 country radio to pay much attention to this single, and in this case that is not such a bad thing.

Step aside Kix and let talented young’uns like Eden’s Edge send you back into retirement at the winery…

If this goes top-5, Ronnie Dunn will climb to the roof of the Ryman. If it goes #1, he’ll jump.

@Dan – ruining everything a special talent I’m rather proud of! ;-)

I was surprised at how much I liked this – I’ve never been a fan of his voice, so I think it especially speaks to the strong material.

I’ve always liked Kix’s voice better than Ronnie’s, so I find this one growing on me.

Ugh, I thought I was being all cool and ‘first’ by reviewing this today! And this review is excellent! You’ve ruined everything, Karlie!!

I’m liking this one so far. It has an interesting hook concept. I’ll be interested to see how Brooks and Dunn’s respective solo careers shape up from here.
