Can Anyone Say Best Male Country Vocalist?,
January 10, 2005 Nick (Queens, NY United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Golden Road (Audio CD)
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...Read more

Changed my persepective on country music...,
May 23, 2005 Pimpernel (Placentia, CA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Golden Road (Audio CD)
Until I heard You'll Think of Me on country radio courtesy of a friend, I couldn't stand anything remotely country. The first time I heard YTOM I was hooked. I bought the album right then, and have absolutely loved it and listened to it over and over again in the past year. I like it better than his first CD (that's a good CD too though) and I may even like it better than his latest, Be Here. I never get tired of it.
1. Somebody Like You 5/5: This was a huge hit (#1 for 8 weeks) and I can see why. It's awesome! The CD has an extended ending that isn't played on the radio.
2. Who Wouldn't Wanna Be Me 5/5: I LOVE this song. Who wouldn't wanna be Keith Urban? This song is so HIM.
3. Whenever I Run 5/5: Also a great song, one of my favorites on the CD. I think he should have released it to the radio, because it probably would have gone to number 1.
4. What About Me 1/5: This is the one song that I've listened to over and over and tried to like,...Read more

Glimpses of Country Greatness!,

This review is from: Golden Road (Audio CD)
Not typically a country music fan, I was initially reeled in by Urban's Australian citizenship and curious to check out how he'd managed to captivate the diehard C&W fans. After listening to the assortment of great tracks on this CD, I understood his universal appeal.
Definitely listener-friendly music for diverse audiences and gives great insight into the country/pop sensation he quickly became! A great introduction for new fans.
