Keith Urban: Be Here Now
Download a song, check him out. Try Nobody Drinks Alone, and then go get the CD. If you don't, you will be fucking sorry.
Track Listing:
1. Days Go By -See. There are a lot of gushy fucking reviews written about this song in particular. This thing is dark at its core. Life is passing you by and the clock is ticking so have a good time while you can.
2. Better Life -Richard Marx shares song writing credit with Urban on this one. It has a banjo in it...hmmm. -I dream of wining the lottery. I tell myself shit is going to get better. I fantasize about my New York offices of Music Incider, and when this cute blond sings about it I almost believe it can happen.
3. Making Memories Of Us -This was written by one of my all time favorites, Rodney Crowell. Rodney wrote it for his wife for Valentine's day. This song has been covered more than once-poorly. This time Urban carries it of with his voice. He does a great fucking job on it.
4. God's Been Good To Me -This one is going to remind you of Waylon Jennings, and we have some massive banjo in there. Okay, you can take this one two ways. Either he is really fucking pleased and grateful about the good breaks that he has had, or he is high on moonshine on the side of a mountain for the first time
5. The Hard Way -This one is a song about working on the bad fucking relationship. Everybody has been there, and in this fucking economy who isn't fighting about something-fuck it it usually money isn't it. Give that woman a paycheck boy, you can afford it now.
6. You're My Better Half -Use this song to get laid. I am telling you -tell somebody that they are your better half and pull them real fucking close and see what happens? Are you going to name that baby Keith?
7. I Could Fly -Urban shows off some fucking guitar chops on this that could rival Joe Satriani. Listen for the Celtic music. -I love the fact he used PALE MOONLIGHT in this song. Is he talking about God or a woman in this one, or does sex equal god? I guess it is up to you.
8. Tonight I Wanna Cry -Okay, this one sounds like Elton John. But check out this lyric “But I'm just drunk enough to let go of my pain. To hell with my pride, let it fall like rain from my eyes.” -This one I love. I am going to use I'm just drunk enough to let go of my pain really soon.
9. She's Gotta Be -You see, every metal CD has a 'THAT BITCH BROKE MY HEART' song. On this one, the hero did EVERYTHING for her and she left any fucking way. I'll bet she is sorry now that Urban is the CMA god.
10. Nobody Drinks Alone -More good darkness on this one. More lyrics, “Every demon, every ghost from your past. Every memory you've held back. Follows you home. Nobody drinks alone.” -Now Hank Williams Sr. could have written a song like this.
11. Country Comfort -This was written by Elton John and Bernie Taupin. Amazingly enough, it is the most traditional country song on the cd and look who it was written by. -I think he did this song BECAUSE it was written by Elton John and Bernie Taupin.
12. Live To Love Another Day -Another 'THAT BITCH BROKE MY HEART' song. But he is going to live to love another day-this song gives the broken heart idea a twist.
13. These Are The Days -Poppy. Britney could lip-synch it and she wouldn't be out of place. -But could she really sing about my Grandmama was a wise old soul? Everybody loves their grandma, but this was a fucked up way to end the CD.
