Song of the Day #1,777: ‘Outstanding in Our Field’ – Brad Paisley
Number of comments: 2
Brad Paisley’s latest album, Wheelhouse, will probably never emerge from the shadow of its controversial, and hilariously bad, song ‘Accidental Racist.’ And that’s a shame, because while Wheelhouse is no American Saturday Night or Mud On the Tires, it’s an ambitious and often rewarding record. If I were to get [...] -
Song of the Day #1,776: ‘Dandelion’ – Kacey Musgraves
Number of comments: 3
A few weeks back I posted that I had just ordered Same Trailer Different Park, the major label debut of Kacey Musgraves. Musgraves is the shiny new object in country music circles, drawing favorable comparisons to both Miranda Lambert and Taylor Swift. Her embrace of gay rights caught the attention [...] -
Song of the Day #1,775: ‘Unhappily Married’ – Pistol Annies
Number of comments: 2
Novelty bands don’t generally make great second albums. The spark of ingenuity that led to their formation is good for one batch of songs and then the members retreat to their solo careers. If they reform again, the results tend to feel forced. The Traveling Wilbury’s Vol. 3 is the [...] -
Song of the Day #1,774: ‘Weed Instead of Roses’ – Ashley Monroe
Number of comments: 1
I’ve bought a handful of albums this year (including Vampire Weekend’s latest a day or two ago) and curiously, four of them are country records. I didn’t plan it that way. Brad Paisley and Pistol Annies released new albums, which I naturally snapped up as a fan of both. Then [...] -
Song of the Day #1,773: ‘Are We All We Are?’ – Pink
Number of comments: 2
Pink’s The Truth About Love was one of last year’s best albums, better even than its predecessor Funhouse, another fine pop-rock record. Pink has quietly (and loudly) become one of the best pop songwriters and performers recording today. She is adept at both pulsating anthems like today’s track and emotional [...] -
Song of the Day #1,772: ‘Running Out of Ink’ – Barenaked Ladies
Number of comments: 1
Today’s Random Weekend selection is a neat little song from the last proper Barenaked Ladies album, Barenaked Ladies Are Men. After this record was released, co-songwriter and co-lead singer Steven Page left the band to pursue a solo career (resulting in one excellent album, Page One, so far). The band [...] -
Song of the Day #1,771: ‘Back to Black’ – Beyoncé & Andre 3000
Number of comments: 3
The most buzzed-about contribution to The Great Gatsby soundtrack is a cover of Amy Winehouse’s ‘Back to Black’ by Beyoncé and Outkast’s Andre 3000. I guess you can’t have Jay-Z produce your movie’s soundtrack and not hear from his lovely wife. The cover generated some controversy when Winehouse’s father (who [...] -
Song of the Day #1,770: ‘Over the Love’ – Florence + The Machine
Number of comments: 3
Bear with me on this one, but I think Florence + The Machine and Adele are having the same career. Consider: Both acts released debut albums that were decent but unremarkable, notable for one hit single that towered above everything else on the record. Then both dropped sophomore records that [...] -
Song of the Day #1,769: ‘Kill and Run’ – Sia
Number of comments: 3
I’m not familiar with Sia, but Wikipedia informs me that is the stage name of Sia Furler, an Australian pop/jazz singer. Today’s track is similar to the Lana Del Rey track that started off the week — more about mood than melody. I’m not a big fan of songs that [...] -
Song of the Day #1,768: ‘Love is Blindness’ – Jack White
Number of comments: 3
Well, we didn’t wind up seeing The Great Gatsby as planned, so this week of songs from the film’s soundtrack will have to survive without commentary about how each was used in the film (by me, anyway… several commenters have seen the film and can chime in on that front). [...]
