Song of the Day #1,116: ‘Creep’ – Devon Barley & Rebecca Loebe
Number of comments: 5
I spent last week on songs by the four coaches of NBC’s The Voice, and this week I’m featuring performances by the show’s contestants. Of the few dozen songs performed on the show over its 2 1/2 month run, not many really stood out as exceptional. Untested amateurs and semi-pros [...] -
Song of the Day #1,115: ‘I’ll Take You Back’ – Brad Paisley
Number of comments: 4
For a guy who is so good at writing earnest love songs, Brad Paisley sure has fun taking things in the other direction. After I discovered Paisley through his 2009 album American Saturday Night, I started buying up his previous albums. Time Well Wasted was either the first or second [...] -
Song of the Day #1,114: ‘Time Well Wasted’ – Brad Paisley
Number of comments: 4
Brad Paisley’s fourth album, Time Well Wasted was released in 2005 and marks the point where he really hit the stratosphere. Starting with his second single release from this album (‘When I Get Where I’m Going,’ a duet with Dolly Parton), he sent a record 10 straight singles to the [...] -
Song of the Day #1,113: ‘Crazy’ – ‘The Voice’ Coaches
Number of comments: 3
The four coaches of The Voice — Blake Shelton, Adam Levine, Christina Aguilera and Cee-Lo Green — are perhaps the unlikeliest quarter to ever share a stage. And the truth is, they didn’t always click in the several performances they gave to open or close episodes of the show. The [...] -
Song of the Day #1,112: ‘Hillbilly Bone’ – Blake Shelton
Number of comments: 2
Ah, Blake Shelton… the cute, mischievous southern gentleman who charmed the socks off of everybody who got within 100 yards of The Voice. As talented as Dia Frampton is, I have no doubt that she made it to second place in large part because Shelton was her coach. Prior to [...] -
Song of the Day #1,111: ‘Hurt’ – Christina Aguilera
Number of comments: 3
Christina Aguilera is the artist who was most in need of image rehabilitation before the debut of The Voice. In the previous year or so she’d made headlines for splitting with her husband, flubbing the lyrics of the national anthem at the Super Bowl and tripping onstage at the Grammys. [...] -
Song of the Day #1,110: ‘Bright Lights Bigger City’ – Cee-Lo Green
Number of comments: 3
Our second Voice coach, Cee-Lo Green, has had a hell of a year. Previously best known for his stint with Gnarls Barkley (specifically the smash hit ‘Crazy’), Cee-Lo lit up the airwaves again in late 2010 with the infectious ‘Fuck You‘ (released as ‘Forget You’ on radio). Ever the showman, [...] -
Song of the Day #1,109: ‘Sunday Morning’ – Maroon 5
My next batch of posts won’t be as timely as they would have been a few weeks back, but I’ve wanted to do a series of posts related to the NBC show The Voice, so better late than never. This week I’ll feature songs by each of the four coaches [...] -
Song of the Day #1,108: ‘Celebrity’ – Brad Paisley
Number of comments: 2
As Brad Paisley became more successful, his silly videos became more star-studded. William Shatner and Jason Alexander, in particular, would become staples of Paisley’s videos in the years to come. Paisley was still just a minor star, however, when he wrote ‘Celebrity,’ a clever song lampooning the Hollywood culture. His [...] -
Song of the Day #1,107: ‘Mud On the Tires’ – Brad Paisley
Number of comments: 7
Two years after Part II, Brad Paisley released his third album, 2003′s Mud On the Tires. This one is a sentimental favorite of mine… I’d number it among his 2-3 best records. This album is when critics and fans alike really started to stand up and take notice of Paisley’s [...]
