Keith Urban's "Golden Road" is the first cd I bought from a male country artist. It is AMAZING!!! Here is how I rate each song on the album (in a 5 star scale):
1) "Somebody Like You"- great song nice instrumentals lengthy and it spent 6 weeks at the top of the country charts. (5 stars)
2) "Who Wouldn't Wanna Be Me"- one of my favorite uptempo songs ever. This song instantly made me a fan of Keith's. (5 stars)
3) Whenever I Run- I love this ballad song in the album. (5 stars)
4) What About Me- Nice song co-written by Rodney Crowell. (5 stars)
5) You'll Think of Me- Great song about overcoming a breakup. The chorus is very catchy as well. I hope this song wins in the upcoming Grammy Awards. This song sounds awesome acoustic in concert. (5 stars)
6) Jeans On- Neat pop song on this album about jeans are a major part of Keith's life. Funny. Interesting beat. (5 stars)
7) You Look Good In My Shirt- This is such a great fun midtempo song. You'll definitely like it. (5 stars)
8) You're Not Alone Tonight- My second favorite song on the album. Very soothing calm relaxing and re-assuring that whenever you are facing hard times you are not alone; there is a person in your life that will be there for you no matter what. Has nice imagery (ex: angels and muses) making it even more creative. (5 stars!!!)
9) You Won- Another song Keith co-wrote with Rodney Crowell. This one took longer to get used to but I eventually liked it. hehe.(4 stars)
10) Song for Dad- AMAZING!!!!! The best song on "Golden Road" and probably one of my favorite male country vocal performances ever. Proves Keith is an excellent songwriter musician and instrumentalist. Speaks about how influential his father is to him and how much he looks up to him as a role model. Should've been released as a single. This song is worth the price of the cd. Well done Keith! 6/5 stars!!!!)
11) Raining on Sunday- Great song about the things one may do when it is a boring rainy Sunday. Starts out slow but the song builds up into an awesome ballad. (5 stars)
12) You're Not My God- A very powerful song about overcoming addiction and how several things in life should be used in moderation cause too much is bad (ex: money and alcohol). (5 stars)
13) One Chord Song- Bonus Song one may hear upon fastforwarding the ending of the previous song. A good conclusion to this album. Shows Keith's voice being backed up with only one chord of "G" hehe. Funny Song. (5 stars)
Overall Rating: 5 stars!!!! Your CD collection is NOT complete without a copy of Keith Urban's "Golden Road." It is worth every penny.
