Honest and Real,
June 20, 2012 Erica - See all my reviews
This review is from: Welcome To The Fishbowl (Audio CD)
I have been a Kenny fan for a very long time. I've watched his music grown and change through each album he's recorded and this one is no exception. The songs on this album are all honest and real. They may not be quite the music you'd expect from Kenny; they're not all about partying and having fun in the sun. They have messages behind they lyrics that reach beyond the boundaries of "country" music and can reach everyone. His voice is a bit haunting in some of the songs, proof that these songs have meaning to him.
"Time Flies" and "Feel Like A Rockstar" are the only tracks on the album that seem like typical Kenny songs, but the other songs are all great as well. "Always Gonna Be You", "To Get To You (55th & 3rd)", and "El Cerrito's Place" (with Grace Potter's lovely vocals gracing the background) are all excellent, stand out tracks in my opinion.
It's a great listen that has something for everyone.

Kenny Chesney Gets Back On Track,
June 25, 2012 David Walls (Houston, Texas) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Welcome To The Fishbowl (Audio CD)
Everyone is entitled to their opinion, but I think this is one of Kenny's finest albums. I have been listening to Kenny since he first came out in 1995. I tend to like his heart felt songs, songs with meaning to his beach party songs. There is only so much of the "beach" songs I can listen to. One of my favorite songs on the album is "I'm A Small Town". I like songs that are different but you can relate to. I guess because I do not go to the Bahamas or Jamaica every year I cannot relate to those songs. Top to bottom this is one of Kenny's best cd's in a while, IMO. "Come Over" is excellent. Welcome To The Fishbowl is a superb album.

Great Cd!!,

This review is from: Welcome To The Fishbowl (Audio CD)
Welcome to the Fishbowl is a great cd. While I don't care for some of the sadder songs like "Sing 'em Good My Friend", I can identify with them. The title track, "Welcome to the Fishbowl", is awesome! Other great songs include the radio released "Feel Like a Rockstar", "El Cerrito Place", "Time Flies", and a live recording of "You and Tequila". If your a Kenny Chesney fan, you need this cd! I can't understand how anyone could rate it below four stars, but to me it rates five! :)
